Dima wrote several natural numbers on the blackboard and underlined some of them. Misha wants to erase several numbers (but not all) such that a multiple of three underlined numbers remain and the total amount of the remaining numbers would be divisible by $2013$; but after trying for a while he realizes that it's impossible to do this. What is the largest number of the numbers on the board?
