(In reply to A hint by Math Man)

That may have been too big a hint but this is just a guess:


314 is the first three digit sequence in the digits of Pi.
592 is the first three digit sequence in the digits of Pi to occur twice.  (Starting at 4 and again at 61 according to http://www.angio.net/pi/ )
)
446 is the first three digit sequence to occur three times (125, 182, 216)
etc.

I'm not going to check that these are truly the first.  
Nor am I going to try finding the first that occurs 6 (or more) times to continue the sequence.
