When my kid does 6-7 I do the same gesture saying 8-9. It also means nothing and it's bigger, so "I win". Annoys the hell out of them.
I go with "Ya, 42 right? I love Hitchhiker's guide. You are never going to go wrong with a guy Hitchhikers reference with me.". And then I go for a high-five that never gets returned. This shuts the entire thing down in such an amusing way.
