Reading this honestly

Each cell shows how often a digit landed in a particular slot. If the draws are fair, every slot should look like 0–9 picked from a hat — about 10% each, with sample noise. Any heat pattern you can see by eye is almost certainly within that noise band.

Sum distribution

All digits added together (0–36)

Middling sums are commonest simply because more digit combinations produce them.
