Derek passed away. He specified in the will that if his son Johnny guesses correctly combination for his safe, he’ll get the $1.000.000 check inside it. He said that the password consists of five numbers. Johnny has only one chance to open the safe, as he’ll be supervised by the lawyer when he decides to give it a shot. Derek left the clue for the combination, the note below.

I am not able to understand the solution for the first riddle. 
Can anyone please explain it?

The solution is a bit odd.

I placed it in the first post because I've deleted the first riddle.

Does it still have the same solution, or have you unmade the sense the first few replies made?

I could connect the dots for you, but it is more rewording if you do it yourself. As for the major spoiler, just send me an instant message and I will say the answer.
