HH: I've read explanations of irregularities in Revelation that 
explain them in rhetorical terms as drawing attention to accomplish 
ends. You should check the commentaries. G. K. Beale  (NIGTC) has a 
section in his introduction entitled "The Solecisms as Signals for 
the Presence of Old Testament Allusions."
