The Secret of 101: The Megaleh Amukot Reveals Why Moshe's Name is not in Tetzaveh

After Chet HaEgel Moshe begs Hashem to forgive Bnei Yisrael and to lead them Himself, not via an angel (מיכאל) into the land as He originally promised (אם אין פניך הולכים אל תעלינו מזה).

Why does the Gemara say that learning something 101 times is incomparable to learning something 100 times? How could an extra time make such a difference? What is the significance of the number 101?
