COMMENTS
Motivation was the form of differences between consecutive primes that generate this sequence. It seems that 12*k appears in all differences except 4.
Differences between corresponding consecutive primes are 36, 12, 4, 24, 24, 24, 24, 36, 24, 12, 36, 12, 36, 36, 60, 24, 36, 36, 60, 36, 24, 24, 24, 36, 12, 24 ...

EXAMPLE
15841 is a term because it is a Carmichael number and average of 15823 and 15859 that are consecutive primes is equal to 15841.
126217 is a term because it is a Carmichael number and average of 126211 and 126223 that are consecutive primes is equal to 126217.
