The last 3 digits of 49^a and 39^c and the last 2 digits od 3993^b have a repeating cycle every 100th term. 

303 modulo 100 is 3; 49^3 = 117649
202 modulo 100 is 2; 3993^2 = 15944049
606 modulo 100 is 6; 39^6 = 3518743761.

Multiplying the the last three digits of each of the three exponential products gives:  24200561 (= 649*049*761) Thus, revealing the last three digits of the product of the original three exponential expressions.
