As per Harper's Bible Dictionary (1954) pg. 156: "Eleven, the, a term applied to the original Twelve Disciples, minus the traitor Judas (Mark 16:14; Matt 28:16; Luke 24:9, 33; Acts 1:26, 2:14).

The concept of numbers in The Bible having "meaning" is something which has been applied in retrospect - - there is no indication that the authors attributed sugnificance to numbers used, other than the counting they represented. That is, eleven just means eleven.
