Comments

No other terms < 65000. This is a subsequence of A075082. All known members of the sequence exploit the fact that 6! = 5! * 3! (they must have 6! without either 5! or 3! in one solution). Factorizations: 10 = 2*5; 720 = 2^4 * 3^2 * 5; 1440 = 2^5 * 3^2 * 5; 17280 = 2^7 * 3^3 * 5; 34560 = 2^8 * 3^3 * 5;
