COMMENTS
The twin prime pairs are characterized in A173255.
No such m has least significant digit (LSD) e = 2 or 7 because a = (6 * e)^5/2 - 1, representing the smaller of the twin primes, would get LSD 5.
No such m has LSD e = 3 or 8, because a+2 = (6 * e)^5/2 + 1, representing the larger prime, would get LSD 5.
The primes in this sequence here are a(6) = 631 = prime(115), a(11) = 1721 = prime(268),
a(17) = 3011 = prime(432), a(49) = 10859 = prime(1320),...

EXAMPLE
p = (6 * 16)^5/2 - 1 = 4076863487 = A000040(193435931); p+2 = A000040(193435932), so a(1) = 16.
p = (6 * 44)^5/2 - 1 = 641194278911 = A000040(24524572848); p+2 = A000040(24524572849), so a(2) = 44.
p = (6 * 84)^5/2 - 1 = 16260080320511 = A000040(553382827197); p+2 = A000040(553382827198), so a(3) = 84.
