There are no such numbers. The smallest set of three consecutive composite numbers is {8, 9, 10} and the product of these numbers is 720.
The 13 consecutive numbers from 114 to 126 are composite.The 13 consecutive numbers from 114 to 126 are composite.The 13 consecutive numbers from 114 to 126 are composite.The 13 consecutive numbers from 114 to 126 are composite.
Basically, composite numbers are the non-prime numbers. Take a table of prime numbers, and look for any two prime numbers, one after the other, that have a difference greater than 2. Any numbers in between are consecutive composite numbers. For example, the next prime number after 13 is 17; that makes 14, 15, and 16 three consecutive non-primes, i.e., composite numbers.

114 through 126 are all composite.
There is no largest composite number. Nor is there a largest sequence of consecutive composite numbers - those sequences can become arbitrarily long.
21 and 22 are the first pair.It can be proven that, given any number n, there are sequences of n consecutive composite numbers.
