What are the odds of hitting the jackpot?

With 6 possible symbols per reel and 3 independent reels, the odds of all three matching are 1 in 36 (6² ways to not match out of 6³ total, giving 6/216 = 1/36).

Is this connected to real gambling in any way?

No, this is a purely for-fun simulation with no real money, wagering, or prizes involved — it's for entertainment and demonstrating probability only.
