>How large will the exponent be for a 10,000,000 digit prime number?
To be a 10,000,000 digit prime number the exponent must be at least
33,219,281 (which also happens to be a Mersenne candidate).

>I.E. What number was it?
It hasn't been announced yet... but from what little information
that is available, i.e. The Oregonian newspaper article, the
exponent must be =at least= 6,643,859.
