That is not correct. If the 1000 year reign were perfect and our rest. There would be no need for Sara. To be let lose again to deceive men , who during this temporal rest, should have NOT rebelled
the reason it is s 1000 year reign is because to God one day is as a 1000 years: meaning God can see into one day, 1000 years. Which means He already foreknowledge that some would rebel even during the time that Satan was bound showing that men will have no one to blame their iniquity on but themselves
Now as to the seven days of creation this was to show that it is he True Cirvumcision done by the hand of God which marks San as having passed through the Lord's Sabbath as a New/eighth day creation

God didn't tell us the time so that we couldn't relax, every generation has thought that it would be in their time.
If you think it's in your time your more likely to be ready. We don't know the time but have been given signs and why not believe it will be in this generation, its gotta happen sooner or latter. Because we don't know the exact date of creation we can't be sure of the exact date that the 6000 years finish. So i try to be ready every day.

We can blame the Jews for this 
their calendar is actually the most accurate but somewhere they got confused and they "lost" +-200 years and we are sitting with the problem today. If you take the Jewish calendar and we add +-200 years we are very close to 6000 years.
Only God knows the appointed time and that is why he confused the issue with our Jewish brothers

Howver that 1000 year reign of peace is temporal.
Those who had a part in the first resurrection have indeed been baptized into Christ and have entered into His Rest having been raised in HIM and marked as a New Creation, reborn of His Life-Giving Spirit
those who have a part in the second resurrection have to wait until after the 1000 year reign to know their fate. Whether they will be raised to life or to condemnation
but blessed are those who have a part in the first resurrection. They are the ones reigning with Him. But not all during the 1000 year reign have had a part in the first resurrection which is why there is a reign

The author of Hebrews, maybe Paul, was urging the people, his 1st original readers (Jews), to enter that rest back then. When we come to Jesus and welcome Him as our LORD and savior, we enter God rest. This passage has nothing to do with a future literal thousand year rest period.

1Th 5:1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
1Th 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
1Th 5:3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
1Th 5:4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
2Pe 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

1. 6000 years is not the only number from "genealogies games".
Scholars offer the date of creation by genealogies from 3754 BC to 20,000 BC.

2. Jewish calendar
"In 1178 CE, Maimonides wrote in the Mishneh Torah, Sanctification of the Moon (11.16), that he had chosen the epoch from which calculations of all dates should be as "the third day of Nisan in this present year ... which is the year 4938 of the creation of the world" (March 22, 1178 CE)"

I dont see any reasons why should Christians form their theology or worldview based on these two inventions.

The length of a year is determined by how long it takes our planet to make one full revolution
around the sun. The month is based on the time required for our moon to complete its cycle.
A day is the time the Earth takes to complete one full rotation on its axis. But what about the week? What astronomical cycle determines this seven-day span?
