EXAMPLE
12451 is prime and A061762(12451) = 1*2*4*5*1+1+2+4+5+1 = 53.
53 is prime and A061762(53) = 5*3+5+3 = 23.
23 is prime and A061762(23) = 2*3+2+3 = 11.
11 is prime and A061762(11) = 1*1+1+1 = 3.
3 is prime and A061762(3) = 3+3 = 6 is not prime.
Thus 12451 begins a sequence of 5 distinct primes under the iteration of A061762. Since 12451 is the least such prime, a(5) = 12451.
