Blog Set Up - .htacess file "write permissions" question

The directions given for completing Wordpress setup include the following..." set write permissions to CHMOD 755. This is most often achieved within your FTP client by right-clicking the .htaccess file and choosing "Get Info"." I right clicked the file and got file permissions option, and within... a slot for "numeric values".  When I first entered "CHMOD 755" as per directions...when I reopened file permissions to double check...it would show numeric values as 644?!?...then after a few more times entering CHMOD 755 now it saves as just...755. What is the significance of the CHMOD? Is it necessary?

It's a command line action; just "755" is what you need.
