The chapter and verse numbering in the Pentateuch was established by the Greeks before the time of Hillel.

No, it was not. The division of the Bible into chapters was created by Stephen Langton in the early 13th century, and only really caught on among Jews when printing came along, and chumashim were published using this system.
