What is special about the 223,092,870 at numerical methods section of:

The web page says it's the product of the primes up to 23. That seems

special enough, surely?

So, why can't you take the product of primes, say to 100, and use that number?

Another example, why not something like:
François Arnault number, a strong pseudoprime to all prime bases less than 200?
François Arnault number, a strong pseudoprime to all prime bases less than 200?

Because there are only a handful of primes of even approximately the
size desired that can be formed from that pattern. And we'd all know
what they were, so factoring the product of two such primes becomes
trivial.
