Jackpot chance is one divided by the combinations available for the entered pool size and pick count. Match probability combines the ways to select winning numbers with the ways to select non-winning numbers from the remaining pool.
For a 6-from-49 format, there are 13,983,816 possible six-number combinations, so the shown jackpot chance is 1 in 13,983,816. A different pool or pick count changes that model.
