There's also in Judaism some prominence of the number 4 (granted, not necesarily about Death): The 4 worlds described in the Kabbalah, the 4 sons, the 4 horns of the altar in Daniel, the 40 days of raining during the Deluge, and the 4 matriarchs. Plus the Tetragrammaton, or four letter name: The written name of God, YHVH.

Plus, the stigma with the number is known worldwide.
