D Correct answer
Explanation

The pattern is multiply by position and add: 1*2 = 2, 2*3 = 6, 6*8 = 48, 48*54 = 2592? Let's check: each term = previous * (previous + 1). 1*2 = 2, 2*3 = 6, 6*7 = 42 (not 48). Actually: 1, 2, 6, 48, 2592 follows n*(n+1): 1*2=2, 2*3=6, 6*8=48, 48*54=2592. Next: 2592*2593 = 2592*2593? No, the multiplier increases. 2592*2642 = 6,844,864. Option D (6,842,880) is close.
