COMMENTS
For the definition of "constant congruence speed", see A373387 and Def. 1.2 (and also Def. 1.1) of "Number of stable digits of any integer tetration" in Links (for all positive integers m > 1 and not a multiple of 10, this corresponds to A373387(m)).
Here, prime factors are considered with their multiplicity (e.g., the prime factors of 75 are 3, 5, and 5 and thus the product of their constant congruence speeds equals 1*2*2=4).
Furthermore, if the product of two positive integers m' and m'' is not divisible by 10, then the constant congruence speed of m'*m'' is necessarily greater than or equal to the minimum of the constant congruence speeds of m' and m'' (see Equation 2.4 of "A Compact Notation for Peculiar Properties Characterizing Integer Tetration" in Links).
By definition, this sequence contains no prime number.

EXAMPLE
a(2) = 6 since the constant congruence speed of 6 is 1, the constant congruence speed of 2 is 1, the constant congruence speed of 3 is 1 and 1 is equal to 1*1.
