Octal.  "chmod 0666 /dev/ttyACM0".

Those two commands are equivalent. The leading digit is optional, and not an indication that the number is octal. All numeric mode descriptions are octal, with or without a leading 0. The leading digit may be used to specify additional permission. If present, it "selects the set user ID (4) and set group ID (2) and restricted deletion or sticky (1) attributes."
