Three mantras are compounded and counted: the result is śatākṣarī, «hundred-syllabled». Counting syllables is a chief device of tantric literature: mantras are compounded, syllables are counted, and by the number a name is given — hundred-syllabled, eight-sounded, fifteen-syllabled. The number here serves as a certification: it shows that the composition is not arbitrary and that nothing has been added or removed.
The division too is declared: trayī-mayī, «made of three». Three mantras are taken from three domains — the gāyatrī from Savitṛ, the durgā-sūkta from Agni, the mṛtyuñjaya from Rudra — and distributed among three: the first words are Brahmā's, the second Power's, the third Śiva's. This triad is not theology but a mapping: it states which part of the mantra belongs to what, the way a diagram is marked out.
The number one hundred in Vedic speech usually means fullness, not an exact count. «Hundred-syllabled» means roughly «complete», as «thousand-headed» in the Puruṣa-sūkta means «boundless».
