Think binary when doing these

Read, Write, Execute
rwx
111 = 7

Read, Write
rw-
110 = 6

Write only
-w-
010 = 2

Read only
r--
100 = 4

etc

So a chmod 701 implies the following

Owner = 7 = 111 = rwx (owner can read write and execute)
Group = 0 = 000 = --- (group has no permissions at all)
World = 1 = 001 = --x (world can execute only)

Yes I'm bored
