Problem Statement

There are n>1n>1 cities in the country, some pairs of cities linked two-way through straight flight. For every pair of cities there is exactly one aviaroute (can have interchanges). Major of every city X counted amount of such numberings of all cities from 11 to nn , such that on every aviaroute with the beginning in X, numbers of cities are in ascending order. Every major, except one, noticed that results of counting are multiple of 20162016. Prove, that result of last major is multiple of 20162016 too.
