“Full digits” in sixteen-prime centuries

In my previous post, I noted that I was trying to see how many of the smallest sixteen-prime centuries had seven primes ending in one digit. This latter phenomenon is one I have only noticed recently and is not recorded on OEIS at all.

Working through the first one thousand centuries with sixteen primes on OEIS (sequence A186408) I found the following cases:

nth century with 16 primes k n mod 21 Seven primes ending in
23 1097546872 16 9
223 926471559529 19 3
255 1194384398740 1 7
289 1534136303215 19 3
294 1553991849772 19 3
307 1644652079911 1 7
315 1725961694479 1 7
482 3627907603807 4 1
750 8673617675503 4 1
883 11557194277084 1 7
925 12714434652190 19 3
The table shows more cases of seven primes ending in 3 or 7 than on 1 or 9. This is because, as noted in the previous post, there is a very strong preponderance of sixteen-prime centuries that are either 1 or 19 modulo 21. These two moduli 21 account for over half of the first thousand sixteen-prime centuries above the eight-digit gap. As you can see, a 1 modulo 21 century may have seven primes ending in 7 (but no other digit) and a 19 modulo 21 century may have seven primes ending in 3 but no other digit. A couple of year ago I calculated that the probability of a 16-prime century having seven primes ending in the same digit was about 1 in 100. The eleven centuries above agrees fairly well with this expectation.

I have not checked seventeen- or eighteen- prime centuries — this is tough to do because Excel cannot read numbers beyond 1015 to the precise whole number — but the fact that the first seventeen-prime century with seven primes ending in one digit has seven primes ending in 7 does suggest a similar pattern.

The full factorisations of the smallest century with seven primes ending in each digit, with primes formign the group of seven coloured in red:
