150
Consider the differences between consecutive numbers:
72 - 56 = 16
90 - 72 = 18
110 - 90 = 20
132 - 110 = 22
150 - 132 = 18 ?!
At every step, the difference increases by 2 except for the last step in which the difference is not the (expected) 24 but 18. Had the last number not been 150 but 132 + 24 = 156 the sequence would have been much simpler to explain. Therefore, 150 is the culprit.
