impressive solution!
I tried a direct attack with the symbolics and it fails ("no solution found") but at least it could verify the solution you found.
So I guess a brute force approach using a loop testing all multiples of 3 evaluated symbolically may come up with the solution - but probably not in a lifetime.
Apropos time - the result is the same in real Mathcad (V.15) but the difference in calculation time compared to Prime is quite remarkable!

But of course, symbolics makes it easier to arrive at the solution using your thoughts:
