One answer is:
'$10!$' = 3628800 = (60*60*24*7*6)
And for fun, the original question accidentally asked to solve for 3 weeks. An argument could be made that the following works:
'$9!5$' evaluates to (9! * 5) = 1814400 = (60*60*24*7*3)

I'm not entirely sure about your solution for 3 weeks, since it implicitly assumes that two numbers next to each other is multiplication, which is not always the case (concatenation is another possibility). But kudos for trying to find a way to do it!

@PiIsNot3 When an operator is involved, concatenation is hardly an option. The real problem with this solution is that it could be $9$ times the subfactorial of $5$...
