Anatomy

65

The first two digits of this number spell "65" sets the stage for the second half. 65 doesn't have any particularly notable properties I care about in the context of this number, so I'll just leave it at that.

5_6

The second half has the same digits as the first half in reverse order, but with something placed in the middle.

3

And this 3 pops in the middle of the second half for a little bit of asymmetry.
