No.
The 41542 nd prime number is 500057 and the running sum is 9916236331 = 937 * 2141* 4943
The 41580 th prime number is 500501 and the running sum is 9935247137 = 43 * 231052259

Also wrong. Try http://oeis.org/A013917 and http://oeis.org/A013917/b013917.txt for prime numbers where the running sum is also prime. The list includes 500249 and 500729, and also 792731 amd 793139.
