Chris Caldwell maintains the authoritative list of biggest known primes;
it includes also a section on twin primes.
See http://primes.utm.edu/largest.html#twin or
http://primes.utm.edu/primes/search.php?Number=200&Comment=Twin|Triplet
Your examples are off by many orders of magnitude from the record zone.
(the biggest currently known twin pair has 58711 digits)
