Therefore, before this 1, p can only contain the digits 0, 3, and 4.

However, p cannot contain both 3 and 4 (because of 34 and 43)

thus, before this 1, p contain either only 0 and 3, or only 0 and 4

For the primes contain only 0 and 3:

Since the first digit cannot be 0, it can only be 3

thus p is 3{xxx}1

x should contain at least one 3 (or p is of the form 3{0}1, and 3{0}1 is divisible by 2)

thus we can assume p is 3{xxx}3{yyy}1

* if both x and y contain 0, then we have the prime 30301

* if x does not contain 0, then x contain only 3

** if x contain at least two 3, then we have the prime 33331

** if x contain exactly one 3, then p is 3{0}3{0}3{yyy}1, and y can contain only the digits 0 (y cannot contain 3, because of 33331) --> p is of the form 3{0}3{0}3{0}1 and divisible by 2, a contradiction

** if x is empty, then p is 33{yyy}1, and y can contain only the digits 0 (y cannot contain at least two 3 because of 33331, and if y contain exactly one 3, then p is divisible by 2 and cannot be prime), then we have the prime 33001

* if y does not contain 0, then y contain only 3

** if y contain at least two 3, then we have the prime 33331

** if y contain exactly one 3, then p is 3{xxx}3{0}3{0}1, and x can contain only the digits 0 (x cannot contain 3, because of 33331) --> p is of the form 3{0}3{0}3{0}1 and divisible by 2, a contradiction

** if y is empty, then p is 3{xxx}31, and x can contain only the digits 0 (x cannot contain at least two 3 because of 33331, and if x contain exactly one 3, then p is divisible by 2 and cannot be prime), then we have the prime 300031

For the primes contain only 0 and 4:

Since the first digit cannot be 0, it can only be 4

thus p is 4{xxx}1

if x contain 0, then we have the prime 401

if x does not contain 0 (thus contain only the digit 4), then we have the prime 44441

Therefore, no such prime p can exist!!!

The 5-kernel is complete!!!

* if p end with 5 --> before this 5, p cannot contain 1, 2, 3, or 4, however, all numbers of the form {0, 5}5 is divisible by 5 and cannot be prime

* thus, p can only end with 1 --> before this 1, p cannot contain 1, 2, 3, or 5 --> before this 1, p can only contain the digits 0 and 4 --> since the first digit cannot be 0, it can only be 4 --> p is of the form 4{xxx}1 --> x should contain at least one 4 (or p is of the form 4{0}1, and 4{0}1 is divisible by 5) --> thus we can assume p is 4{xxx}4{yyy}1
