Let $P(\alpha, \beta, \gamma)$ be the point on the line $\frac{x-1}{2} = \frac{y+1}{-3} = \frac{z}{1}$ at a distance $4\sqrt{14}$ from the point $(1, -1, 0)$ and nearer to the origin. Then the shortest distance between the lines $\frac{x-\alpha}{1} = \frac{y-\beta}{2} = \frac{z-\gamma}{3}$ and $\frac{x+5}{2} = \frac{y-10}{1} = \frac{z-3}{1}$ is equal to
