Let $(\alpha, \beta, \gamma)$ be the coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular drawn from the point $(5, 4, 2)$ on the line $\vec{r} = (-\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} + \hat{k}) + \lambda(2\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} - \hat{k})$. Then the length of the projection of the vector $\alpha\hat{i} + \beta\hat{j} + \gamma\hat{k}$ on the vector $6\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}$ is:
