This is very good advice. It would be useful to clarify your thinking. What behavior do you expect, and how does that differ from the ("random") behavior you would otherwise expect? Until you can define these two things, you haven't even established anything meaningful to discuss.

Rate my professor is a funny site. I teach general-ed math courses, and the population seated in those classes, well..... they don't like my standards. :)

My side gig is as a volleyball coach; thus the "VB" in my handle.

anyway i found other "coincidences"
so for example: there are two exponents leading to a prime divisible by 139: 3336 and 75894. 3336 and 75894 are also divisible by 6 and they are both congruent to 1 mod 29.

There are two exponents leading to a prime divisible by 41: 451 and 181015. They both are congruent to 1 mod 6

I cannot predict nothing, maybe even the smartest man on the earth couldn't do it...the only thing I see is that exponents follow a rule which is completely out of reach by us!

This isn't a bad first try at defining "random". It's just that you keep calling this "not random". Keep trying.

Is this unusual?

I also know a prime divisible by 41.
