Unsafe primes (primes in A059456) for which there is exactly one divisor d of p - 1 such that o(d) = L(p), where o(k) is the multiplicative order of k modulo p and L(p) is the least common multiple of o(k)'s among all divisors k of p - 1.

a(6) > 10^12, if it exists.
If a prime p = 2ab + 1 with a, b prime belongs to this sequence, then o(k) is a permutation over divisors of p - 1.
If a prime p = 2q + 1 is a safe prime (in A005385), then we have either o(2) = 2q, o(q) = q or o(2) = q, o(q) = 2q. Thus there is exactly one divisor d of p - 1 such that o(d) = L(p) = 2q.

EXAMPLE
For p = 31, then o(2) = 5, o(3) = 30, o(5) = 3, o(6) = 6, o(10) = 15, o(15) = 10, and o(30) = 2; so 31 is a term.
