Answer
WAIT!

This is a better answer!

I was looking up something else when I stumpled apon a solution for you :)

Open you document. go to window, pages.  Right click on one of the pages and go to numbering and section options.  Click start page numbering at ... and type page 7.

I hope this helps.
