The real Forrest Gump's name is George Woods, who was autistic. As with many autistic people, Woods was gifted in a particular subject, his being math. In the movie when Gump has finished running and turns to go home, he states the years, months, days, hours and minutes of his cross-country trips. That's how Woods summed things up also, all in his head without paper/pencil or calculator.
