On an unrelated note, 2034 is 1001 years after christ's death.

No need to throw a wet blanket on 2034, 1914 does not feature in bible prophecy at all.

The 120 years of 6:3 "stands" but what does it stand in relation to?
- Noah was 500 years old before he beget children 5:32
- Noah was 600 years old when the deluge came 7:6,11
- Noah's children were old enough to be married at the time God informed him of the impending calamity. 6:13-18
The 120 years of 6:3 can't be shoe-horned into this little window where any "preaching work" that Noah may have done would have occured.
If JW's want to continue to draw a parallel between themselves and Noah, the 120 years is never going to be anything more than a vague suggestion.
It's never going to be fleshed out to the extent that 1975 was because that could only be done at the expense of the parallel itself.
