Conjecture 1: There are infinitely many primes of this form.

Conjecture 2: 6 is the only integer k for which palindrome primes of the form k*p+1 exist, where p is a palindromic prime.

Conjecture 2 is false. A counterexample: 180 * 101 + 1 = 18181 where 101 and 18181 are palindromic primes and k = 180. - David A. Corneth, Nov 01 2018

p must have an odd number of digits (since 11 is the only palindrome prime with an even number of digits) and the leading digit of p must be 1, otherwise 6p+1 has an even number of digits. So p must have the form 1...1 and 6p+1 the form 7...7.

From Chai Wah Wu, Dec 06 2019 : (Start)

Suppose q = 6p+1 is a term written as q = a0a1a2...a2a1a0 and p = b0b1b2...b2b1b0.

The discussion above shows that a0 = 7 and b0 = 1.

b_i is either 2 or 3 for i odd and b_i is either 0 or 1 for i even (see MathExchange link).

MathExchange, p and 6p+1 both palindrome primes. Is (131/787) the only example?.

Example

787 is in the sequence because 787 = 6*131 + 1, where 131 is a palindromic prime.
