I see 4*5*6 4 times. I'm still missing something or I don't see why this should always produce primes in fact I can telll you for ? not more than 8 the first multiplication you suggest never gives a prime:

Code:
(13:37) gp > %32*2 * 4 * 5 * 6 * 3 * 4 * 5 * 6 * 3 * 6 * 7 * 8
%39 = 265410020093460480000000
(14:03) gp > for(x=1,8,print(isprime(x*%39-1)))
