Why not? Divide it by 6000300 and you have 1Hz. Or by 60003 and have 100Hz.
First divide by 100 using a pair of decade counters. Then have that
drive a counter and you compare the count with "60003" and a match
drives a reset line low resetting the counter to 0. The reset line is
your 1Hz output. I think it could all be done with cheap cmos
logic.
