Octal 777 is really the same as decimal 511.
If you are calling mkdir and looking at the permissions on the created directory, you may think the mode is wrong because of umask (default permission bitmask that’s applied to the mode).  But the numbers are really equivalent, we are only talking about a doc presentation issue here, not any problem in code.
