COMMENTS
Note that if m appears in the sequence then k^3*m will also appear for all k and so in particular all cubes appear; the reverse is not always true (for example, 32*255*257/60 = 34952 = 2^3*4369 eventually appears, but 4369 does not).
By considering the Pythagorean triangle (3k, 4k, 5k) we see that all numbers k^3 are in the sequence. - Sergey Pavlov, Mar 29 2017
