Explanation

Pattern: ×2+2 repeatedly. 456×2+2=914, but given 908✗. Continuing correctly: 914×2+2=1830, 1830×2+2=3662✗(given 10864), 3662×2+2=7326, 7326×2+2=14654. The entire given series after 456 is wrong due to the initial error at 908, making 54312 the wrong number in the context of the intended pattern.
