The simple reason is because when one counts you don't count ...
"ONLY TWO THREE" ... ETC! NO! YOU COUNT "ONE TWO THREE" ... ETC
And guess what? The Hebrew word for 'NUMERO UNO' is ECHAD
Yacheed/yachiyd - Strong's Number 3173, is the word for 'only', solitary ...
it is not the Hebrew word for NUMERO UNO
Hence, Deut 6:4 ... YAHWEH OUR GOD, YAHWEH IS ONE
It's as simple as that!

Transliterated: 'echad

Text: a numeral from 258; properly, united, i.e. one; or (as an ordinal) first: --a, alike, alone, altogether, and, any(-thing), apiece, a certain, [dai-]ly, each (one), + eleven, every, few, first, + highway, a man, once, one, only, other, some, together,
example as in the expressions ''one cluster of grapes,'' ''the congregation was assembled as one man,'' and again, "Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.''
Oh BTW, Adam and Eve became 'one' flesh not two! ONE still means ONE
ONE Cluster ... it is still the number ONE
1 flesh, 1 cluster, not 2 ...
Likewise 1 GOD, not 2 or 3
