COMMENTS
The computations were done without any assumptions on the form of d.
All terms are multiples of 6. - Zak Seidov, Jan 07 2014
Equivalently, integers d such that the largest possible arithmetic progression (AP) of primes with common difference d has exactly 5 elements (see example). These 5 elements are not necessarily consecutive primes. In fact, for each term d, there exists only one such AP of primes, and this one always starts with A342309(d) = 5, so this unique AP is (5, 5+d, 5+2d, 5+3d, 5+4d). - Bernard Schott, Jan 25 2023

FORMULA
m is a term iff A123556(m) = 3. - Bernard Schott, Jan 25 2023
EXAMPLE
d = 12 then {5, 5 + 1*12, 5 + 2*12, 5 + 3*12, 5 + 4*12} = {5, 17, 29, 41, 53}, which is 5 primes in arithmetic progression.
MAPLE
filter := d -> isprime(5+d) and isprime(5+2*d) and isprime(5+3*d) and isprime(5+4*d) : select(filter, [$(1 .. 10000)]); # Bernard Schott, Jan 25 2023
