$$\mathrm{6}!\mathrm{7}! \\ $$$$=\mathrm{1}×\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{3}×\mathrm{4}×\mathrm{5}×\mathrm{6}×\mathrm{7}! \\ $$$$=\mathrm{1}×\mathrm{3}×\mathrm{5}×\mathrm{6}×\mathrm{8}! \\ $$$$=\mathrm{1}×\mathrm{5}×\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{9}! \\ $$$$=\mathrm{10}! \\ $$$$\left({x}−\mathrm{2013}\right)!=\mathrm{6}!\mathrm{7}!=\mathrm{10}! \\ $$$${x}−\mathrm{2013}=\mathrm{10} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}=\mathrm{2023} \\ $$
