Note that a(11) is palindromic.
The last digit of n cannot be 6, therefore a(n) must have at least n+1 digits. It is probable that none among [10^n/9]*60 + {1,3,7,9} is prime in which case a(n) must have n+2 digits. We conjecture that for all n >= 0, a(n) equals [10^(n+1)/9]*60 + b with 1 <= b <= 9 and one of the (first) digits 6 replaced by a digit among {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}. - M. F. Hasler, Feb 22 2016
