The number 10 is very significant as it symbolizes "completeness of order" "nothing lacking" "everything in its proper order" Thus the number 10 represents the perfection of "divine order"

The "10" Commandments (Exodus 20:2-17)

The "10" Righteous" (Gen 18:32)

The "10" Generations

and many more

10 is symbolic of "the start of a whole new order" and the culmination of all the numbers that came before it.
