As far as I know, such a sequence has never popped up.

It's because there are far more combinations of non-consecutive numbers than consecutive ones

So a non-consecutive run is more probable, but the odds of a consecutive run are still the same, in the sense of the chance of picking the 6 numbers that the machine selects?
HuhA man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
