Yes, the first four of the entries are blank.
Are you sure that the last number shouldn't be 948617? If it is
948617, then 2324788 may come next.
Now you have me intrigued! However, the 7th term is indeed 948717.
As an extra pointer, the subsequent terms become incredibly predictable
very quickly at this point, until you hit the 25th term.
