%F a(n) == 0 (mod 30) for n>1.

%e The first 4 terms of the sequence are 12, 210, 1050, 330, since the gaps between first elements of the first five quintuples {5,7,11,17,19}, {17,19,23,29,31}, {227,229,233,239,241}, {1277,1279,1283,1289,1291}, {1607,1609,1613,1619,1621} are, 17-5=12, 227-17=210, etc.
