I conjecture that $233#-1$ is the only number of the form $p#-1$, where p is a prime and # denotes the primorial function, which is divisibile by $641$. $641$ is the smallest prime dividing $F_5$, as shown by Euler.

The only thing I see about $641$ is that it's prime and it's a factor of $F5$, the 5th Fermat's number. If that's the case, I am not really sure why this type of conjecture should be unique to $641$, if it is indeed true.

No, what I mean is. What is unique about the conjecture $p' # - 1$ divisible by some prime $p_0$. If it's for $641$, can't I take some other values? What makes you think $641$ and $233$ are unique? This could help us proceed.

It is true, but I doubt there's any significance to it. The number $p# - 1$ is clearly not divisible by $641$ if $pgeq 641$, and it turns out that $233# equiv 1pmod641$. Similarly, $3#1 - 1 = 5$ is divisible by $5$; and $7#-1 = 209$ is divisible by $11$ and $19$; and etc.
