The band name is a kind of pleonasm, because both 'Pax' and '217' point at 'peace'.
In the first case that is rather obvious (pax is the Latin word for peace) and concerning the second it is sufficient to take a look in the Bible (Ephesians 2:17, to be exact): 'He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near.'
