when b8vr is right, asking why can't the number be greater than 720896?, is there a paper on that? it is stil 65536^8 = 3,4028236692093846346337460743177e+38 combinations

The reason for the 65536 can be found in the way the recovery key is calculated. Each group of the in all 8 groups consists of 2 bytes. This means the largest number in hex is limited by FF FF = 65535. Including 00 00, that gives 65536. That times 11 gives 720896.
