I don't know Sean, I guess you cannot count, or something. The prophecy, was that all six of the points in verse 24 would be fulfilled within the 70 week time period. The prophecy was then so specific as to set the starting point for the 70 weeks. "Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks". We can trace the time line from the command to restore Jerusalem to the time of the baptism of Christ to be exactly 69 weeks. Leaving the last week for Christ to complete and fulfill the six points of verse 24.

And since you seem to be hung up on the everlasting righteousness, look at these verses.
Rom_3:21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
Rom_3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:

2Co_5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

2Co_9:9 (As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever.

Christ brought righteousness into the world, and his righteousness is forever. It that not everlasting righteousness?
It's not about the cross in dispensationalism.
