EXAMPLE
a(5) = 7 since 5 occurs in prime(7)# = 2 * 3 * 5 * 7 * 11 * 13 * 17 = 510510, but not in prime(0)#, prime(1)#, prime(2)#, ..., prime(6)#.
MATHEMATICA
primorial[n_] := Product[Prime[j], {j, 1, n}]; a[n_] := (k = 0; While[! MatchQ[IntegerDigits[primorial[k]], {___, Sequence @@ IntegerDigits[n], ___}], k++]; k); Table[a[n], {n, 0, 70}]
