What are examples of strikingly anomalous phenomena in mathematics, where just one or a rather small number of cases stand out because they don't fit a general pattern?
This is most interesting when the situation considered is very simple and basic, and where the exceptional cases are not merely the lowest-numbered ones.
For example, the outer automorphism of the symmetric group S6 (which exists for no other Sn), and the existence of non-standard differentiable structures on ℝ4 (but no other ℝn).
