The days of Noah are identified with the coming of Christ: (note the coming of Christ involves 2 parts):
Matthew 24:37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
- Secret coming of Christ removing the candlesticks (during the 2nd or 3rd Watch 1993 - 2000) from the physical organized churches) coinciding to the beginning of the flood (Satan's beginning attack in Cheshvan 1987 - Adar 1988 and complete take over in 1994 ) that destroys the physical organized church as an institution for bringing in the Latter Rain Harvest.
Luke 12:38 And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants.
Revelation 2:5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
- Christ coming in glory with the saints for the Final Judgment Day coinciding with the ending of the flood destruction of the earth and the heavens, 2Peter 3:10. Christ comes and destroys the Flood (Kingdom of Satan) typified as Spiritual Babylon
In 2Peter 3:6 the Greek word "kosmos" translated "World" means the inhabitants or people perished because of the floods. The perishing of the inhabitants or people is not synonymous with the destruction of heavens (earth and solar system) as the wicked are reserved for destruction prior to the destruction of Heavens (earth and solar system), 2Peter 2:13-17.
2Peter 3:6 Whereby the world [2889 kosmos] that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
Also, in Genesis 6:17 we see very clearly the flood waters during Noah's Day that were upon the earth destroyed all flesh not the universe, 2Peter 3:10.
Genesis 6:17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.
Wicked Reserved for Destruction prior to the Destruction of the Earth and heavens:
2Peter 2:13 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;
2Peter 2:14 Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:
2Peter 2:15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;
2Peter 2:16 But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man’s voice forbad the madness of the prophet.
2Peter 2:17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.
The heaven consist (existed) during the flood and before the flood. Thus, the beginning of a spiritual flood is not synonymous with the destructions of the heavens (earth and universe).
2Peter 3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens[ouranos] were of old, and the earth standing [4921 sunistao] out of the water and in the water:

The (heavens) "ouranos" earth and universe are destroyed by fire absent the beginning of a spiritual flood is the only way to achieve spiritual harmony when Christ coming with the Saints.
2Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens [3772 ouranos] shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up
A beginning spiritual flood could signal the perishing of all the wicked flesh, but this does not mean their perishing is instantaneous with Judgment Day, as the "Wicked" are reserved for destruction, 2Peter 2:17. Similarly, when the Flood that came during the physical flood of Noah Day the "Wicked" did not immediately perish. It was not until the 47th day (seven days after Noah entered the ark and 40 days of rain) before the all that had the breath of life died that were ouside the ark, Genesis 7:17 - 21. As discussed earlier the perishing of the wicked during the Flood was not synonymous with the destruction of the universe or ouranos, as the earth existed before and during the Flood, 2Peter 3:5. We see just before the onset of God's Judgement of the Final Tribulation the servants of God are seal. Those who are not sealed are in effect marked for destruction although their Final Judgement Day will not come until the end of the Final Tribulation Period.
Revelation 7:1 And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
Revelation 7:2 And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
Revelation 7:3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
Thus, the 7,000 year extrapolation from the beginning of the Flood in 4990 BC to 2011 AD (completion of the 70th Week) clearly does not harmonize with the Final Judgment Day which involves the immediate destruction of the earth and heavens [ouranos], 2Peter 3:10 .
2Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens [3772 ouranos] shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up
However, Satan and his spiritual kingdom are also biblically typified as a flood and a 7,000 year extrapolation from the end of the Flood in 4989 BC to 2012 AD (completion of the 70th Week) is clearly identified with the destruction of the heavens and the earth. --see the end of Spiritual Babylonian (Completion of the 70 and Spiritual End of the Flood).
Genesis 8:13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.
Jeremiah 51:36 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee; and I will dry up her sea, and make her springs dry.
Jeremiah 51:37 And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling place for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing, without an inhabitant.
Revelation 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Revelation 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
Also, the extrapalatiing from the begining of Flood 4990 BC to 2011 AD to arrive at the completion of the 70th Week is not harmonious with Christ return with the saints in Glory in context of the true believers spiritual experience, since they would have allready endured a four sore judgment period of 9,200 days (Av 1, 5747 - July 27, 1987 to Tishri 15-16, 5773 - October 1, 2012).
Noah, Daniel, and Job are 3 examples of those whom God allowed to endure the four sore judgment, as they were in it, but protected by God typified by:
Ezekiel 14:13 Son of man, when the land sinneth against me by trespassing grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it, and will break the staff of the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and will cut off man and beast from it:
Ezekiel 14:14 Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 14:15 If I cause noisome beasts to pass through the land, and they spoil it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through because of the beasts:
Ezekiel 14:16 Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate.
Ezekiel 14:17 Or if I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go through the land; so that I cut off man and beast from it:
Ezekiel 14:18 Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only shall be delivered themselves.
Ezekiel 14:19 Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my fury upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast:
Ezekiel 14:20 Though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they shall but deliver their own souls by their righteousness.
Ezekiel 14:21 For thus saith the Lord GOD; How much more when I send my four sore judgments upon Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the noisome beast, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast?
Ezekiel 14:22 Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant that shall be brought forth, both sons and daughters: behold, they shall come forth unto you, and ye shall see their way and their doings: and ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought upon it.
Finally, the beginning of Flood 4990 BC to 2011 AD to arrive at the completion of the 70th Week is not consistent with spiritual pictures of an end time Final Harvest, for example in the Jordan River crossing by the children of Israel the harvest was completed once they crossed over the Jordan (which typified a flood) not at the beginning of the crossing.
Joshua 3:15 And as they that bare the ark were come unto Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bare the ark were dipped in the brim of the water, (for Jordan overfloweth all his banks all the time of harvest,)
1Chronicles 12:15 These are they that went over Jordan in the first month, when it had overflown all his banks; and they put to flight all them of the valleys, both toward the east, and toward the west.
The harvest came after the crossing of the Jordan River that typified a Flood which served as a saving for Israel (similar to the floods where water served as a saving in Noah's day), which also resulted in a spiritual Harvest at the end of the Flood of Noah's Day.
Joshua 5:10 And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal, and kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at even in the plains of Jericho.
Joshua 5:11 And they did eat of the old corn of the land on the morrow after the passover, unleavened cakes, and parched corn in the selfsame day.
Joshua 5:12 And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the old corn of the land; neither had the children of Israel manna any more; but they did eat of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.
