The winner nailed the five numbers picked in Tuesday night’s Mega Millions drawing — 23, 32, 33, 39 and 43 — along with the "Mega Ball" of 8, the lottery said on its website.
The winner has not yet come forward, said Christy Calicchia, director of communications for New York Lottery.
Three other New Yorkers picked the first five numbers — but not the Mega Ball — and won $250,000 each.
The lone jackpot-winning ticket was sold at a King Kullen supermarket in Middle Island.
"It's amazing. We're so happy, and we hope it's a regular and someone who needs the money," Lisa Korpie, the store's head bookkeeper, told the Daily News.
Korpie said the store's clerks were bummed they missed out on the millions.
"We all wish it was us, but we have a weekly pool and we won $7," she said. "We're excited."
After Tuesday's win, which Calicchia said set a record in Suffolk County, the Mega Millions jackpot was reset to $12 million.
The next drawing is on Friday.
