Formula
The following formulas are given for general bases p>1:
a(n)=product{1<=k<=n, dp_p(k)} where dp_p(k) = product of the nonzero digits of k in base p.
a(n)=(n mod p)!*product{00}(floor(n/p^j)mod p)^(1+(n mod p^j))*((floor(n/p^j)mod p)-1)!^(p^j).
Recurrence: a(n+k*p^m)=a(n)*k^n*a(k*p^m) for 0<=k
a(n)=n!, for 0<=n
a(k*p^m)=k*(p-1)!^(k*m*p^(m-1))*(k-1)!^(p^m) for 0<=k
a(n)=(p-1)!^((m*p^(m+1)-(m+1)*p^m+1)/(p-1)^2)=(p-1)!^(1+2*p+3*p^2+...+m*p^(m-1)) for n=1+p+p^2+...+p^m.
a(n)=(p-1)!^(k*(m*p^(m+1)-(m+1)*p^m+1)/(p-1)^2)*(k-1)!^(p*(p^m-1)/(p-1))*k^(k*(p^(m+1)-(m+1)*p+m)/(p-1)^2)*k!*k^m, for n=k*(1+p+p^2+...+p^m).
For p=10: a(10^n)=9!^(n*10^(n-1)).
Asymptotic behavior: a(10^n)=10^(0.5559763...*n*10^n). Hence it grows slower than the factorial A000142(10^n) for which we have (10^n)!=10^((n-0.43429448...)*10^n+n/2+0.3990899...+o(1/n)). Example: a(1000) has 1668 digits, whereas 1000! has 2568 digits.
