XXXWYZ = 9×C_( 3) ^( 9) × ((6!)/(3!)) =9×((9×8×7)/(3×2×1)) ×6×5×4=90720 where X≠ 0
$${XXXWYZ}\:=\:\mathrm{9}×{C}_{\:\mathrm{3}} ^{\:\mathrm{9}} \:×\:\frac{\mathrm{6}!}{\mathrm{3}!} \\ $$$$=\mathrm{9}×\frac{\mathrm{9}×\mathrm{8}×\mathrm{7}}{\mathrm{3}×\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{1}}\:×\mathrm{6}×\mathrm{5}×\mathrm{4}=\mathrm{90720} \\ $$$$\:{where}\:{X}\neq\:\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$ \\ $$

to select three digits there are C_3 ^(10) =120 ways. say the three digits are x,y,z. to form a 6 digit number with these three digits we have case 1: 4x+y+z ⇒3×((6!)/(4!))=90 case 2: 3x+2y+z ⇒3×2×((6!)/(3!2!))=360 case 3: 2x+2y+2z ⇒((6!)/(2!2!2!))=90 ⇒120×(90+360+90)=64800 but in these numbers some begin with zero: 0xxxxy ⇒2×((5!)/(4!))=10 0xxxyy ⇒2×((5!)/(3!2!))=20 0xxxy0 ⇒2×((5!)/(3!))=40 0xxyy0 ⇒((5!)/(2!2!))=30 0xxy00 ⇒2×((5!)/(2!2!))=60 0xy000 ⇒((5!)/(3!))=20 to select the two digits x and y there are C_2 ^9 =36 ways. ⇒36×(10+20+40+30+60+20)=6480 total valid 6 digit numbers: 64800−6480=58320

there is also a formula: (9/(10))×C_m ^(10) ×m!×{_m ^n } with n=6 and m=3: (9/(10))×C_3 ^(10) ×3!×{_3 ^6 }=(9/(10))×120×6×90 =58320
$${there}\:{is}\:{also}\:{a}\:{formula}: \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{9}}{\mathrm{10}}×{C}_{{m}} ^{\mathrm{10}} ×{m}!×\left\{_{{m}} ^{{n}} \right\} \\ $$$${with}\:{n}=\mathrm{6}\:{and}\:{m}=\mathrm{3}: \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{9}}{\mathrm{10}}×{C}_{\mathrm{3}} ^{\mathrm{10}} ×\mathrm{3}!×\left\{_{\mathrm{3}} ^{\mathrm{6}} \right\}=\frac{\mathrm{9}}{\mathrm{10}}×\mathrm{120}×\mathrm{6}×\mathrm{90} \\ $$$$=\mathrm{58320} \\ $$
