Answer
1,512.Here's how:
6 rugs, each with 6 tables on them, so there are 36 tables.
Each table has 6 legs, or 216 legs total (36 X 6).
Each table has 6 creatures on it, so there are 216 creatures (36 X 6).
Each creature has 6 legs, so there are 1,296 creature legs (216 X 6).
216 table legs + 1,296 creature legs = 1,512 total legs.
