Sold at Liquor Cellar, located on W. Channel Island Boulevard, the ticket had matching numbers with those drawn Wednesday evening, which were: 12, 19, 20, 36 and 42, while the Mega number was 3.

It was the first time in over 20 drawings that a ticket had all six numbers. 

It turns out that the lucky winner is a regular customer at Liquor Cellar. 

The owner of the convenience store told CBSLA Reporter Jasmine Viel that the local Oxnard man walked in on Thursday and that's when he found out he hit the jackpot.

The store cashier had to get a second opinion from one of her coworkers after originally checking the ticket. 

Camel Yobi, who owns Liquor Cellar, told Viel that the man comes in with his daughter regularly to purchase his $2 lottery ticket.

Across Los Angeles County, a ticket with five matching numbers was drawn, just missing the Mega number. That ticket, sold in Duarte at Simpatia Meat Market, is worth $35,301. 

With the winning numbers drawn, SuperLotto's jackpot resets at $7 million.

According to the California Lottery, the chances of matching all five numbers, plus the Mega number are 1 in 41,416,353.
