It depends how often October starts with a Saturday. As there are exactly 7weeks in a normal year, the begining day of the year, and therfore October, will cycle on by 1 day each year. In a leap year the begining day of the following year will have cycled on by 2 days. Therefore every sixth year the pattern repeats.

Incidently there are seven months each year with three repeating days so I really don't understand how the once in every 823 years thing came about.

My sister has just poster the 823 years thing on facebook and although she has done it as a half-joke, some people really believe this chain mail stuff. So I felt compelled to add my own little contribution of rationalisation to the internet. Please proliferate my nicely reasoned explanation just as much as idiots have bombarded you with requests to pass on their hopeless superstitions.
