It's not just Amy's door number that has significance. Star Trek actor Wil Wheaton's on-screen house is number 1701, a number Trekkies will know as the registry number of the USS Enterprise itself.

The code for the Enterprise is NCC-1701, while the Enterprise-D used in the Star Trek: The Next Generation series that Wheaton appeared in, was called NCC-1701-D, leading to his door number being honoured with the reference.
