Does Le Pyramide (Cour Napoleon) really have 666 panes of glass?

The glass pyramid at the Louvre.

Dan Brown wrote a NOVEL which means that he didn't lie, he invented things using real names which confused everyone.
And la pyramide has more than 900 panes of glasses, and it's not even the President Mitterand that asked anything about the number of glasses, architects dealt with this.

I heard Dan Brown used artistic licence in "The Da Vinci Code" and that it fact there is over 900 panes in LA Pyramide (it's female, of course)

The pyramid has 673 panes (and not 666 as Dan Brown stated). You have a detailed count on the wikipedia article about it.
