Probably Exponential is not the best model?  You can see the fit by doing:

In[16]:= data = {{40, 0.0624}, {50, 42.2*0.276}, {58, 127.718}, {60, 
216.608}, {70, 2040.088}};

Fit[data, Exp[t], t]

Out[17]= 8.110309498068819*^-28*E^t

So, a=8.110309498068819*^-28, and k=1

Why not try other models like a polynomial?
