COMMENTS
a(3)-a(6) are the first elements of A060213, A102168, A164289, A164290 respectively with n=3,4,5,6 (prime factors in the middle number).
This gives the first p with (p,p+2) twin primes and Omega(p+1)=n with n>=2 (n=1 is impossible).

EXAMPLE
a(7)=191 because in (191, 192, 193) we have Omega(192)=Omega(2*2*2*2*2*2*3)=7 and 191, 193 are twin primes.
The sequence oscillates and here we see that a(7)<a(6)=239.
