I must be retarded. one 2, three 4s, five 6es, seven 8s ... but wait, there are eight 8s????

It helps if you spell out the numbers: One "2", Three "4"['s], Five "6"['s], Seven "8"['s]. Intended to be clever, but it fails because in the end, it's not.

Thanks, that's what I did but the eighth 8 violated the expected sequence, so its really not a solvable puzzle. That last character could have been anything else and it would achieve the same purpose -- to break the obvious sequence. There is no rule I can think of that explains why the last character must be "8".
