Example

4!=24 has no zeros, and 5!=120 has 1 (10^0) zero ==> a(0)= 5.
44!=2658271574788448768043625811014615890319638528000000000 (9 zeros) and 45!=119622220865480194561963161495657715064383733760000000000 (10^1= 10 zeros) ==> a(1)=45.

Mathematica

Z10[n_] := Floor[Sum[Floor[n/5^i], {i, 1, Floor[Log[5, n]]}]]; a[n_] := Module[{m = 4*10^n}, While[Z10[m] < 10^n, m++ ]; m]; Table[a[n], {n, 0, 60}]
