Not the 7 mitzvot benei noach, which are included in our 613 (Hence Rut
accepted 606 additional mitzvot).
Saadya Gaon said that it is the sheva mitzvos benei Noach whiich makes  
sense.
Sure, the 7 mitzvos are included in our 613 but for a goy, the 7  
mitzvos is in a
different category. Hence, we have our taryag and they have their  
sheva mitzvos.
I'm sure Saadya Gaon knew the difference.

And according to the Semag, who includes the 7 derabbanan among the 613?
Very good point.
