if you scramble a rubiks cube up there is a good chance that it is the first cube to be in that state. there are 43,252,003,247,489,856,000 possible states that a cube(3x3) can be scrambled up in to.
Not only that, but every single one of those configurations is solvable in 20 moves or less! https://www.cube20.org/
The chance that a mixed up 52 card deck was in that combination is pretty slim too. Probability is roughly an 8 with 67 zeros to 1. And don't hope for that flush draw, kid, it's even more unlikely.
