Equivalently, integers m such that the smallest number of pentagonal numbers (A000326) which sum to m is exactly five, that is, A100878(a(n)) = 5. Richard Blecksmith & John Selfridge found these six integers among the first million, they believe that they have found them all (Richard K. Guy reference). - Bernard Schott, Jul 22 2022
