They are anything but random. Each increase is three steps, but I don't know a term in any language for that.

Aha true!

Then I would say it's a trifold sequence, maybe? But I think you're right that there's no word in English for the verb "To increase by three orders of magnitude".

They're arithmetic progressions/sequences with a common difference of 3.

"Every three days" would refer to an event that happens on this scale. Could you please give the full context of the sentence you would like to write and then I can be confident that I'm giving you the right word. Thank you!
