Example of Solomon's 3000 parables or 1005 interpretations

ThisAs cited websitehere states that "Rashi brings the Midrash that Solomon taught three thousand parables on every single verse of the Torah and gave 1,005 explanations of each parable (see Rashi on vv 11-I Kings 5:12)" states:

In the Medrash Aggada [we find Solomon’s great wisdom enabled him] to say three thousand allegories in each sentence of the Torah, and in each of the allegories one thousand and five reasons.

Is there an example for either listing 3000 parables for a given verse or listing the 1005 interpretations for a given parable?
