What does "make sevens" mean?

The sentence is....

Please tell me the meaning and give me other examples.

According to The Urban Dictionary: "Sevens refers to the seven digits of a phone number (even if the number of digits is ten, it can still be referred to as "the sevens") most likely acquired from a girl. It is always plural and is interchangeable with 'digits.' "
