After taking a break and returning to staring at this again, I have a new theory.
We have E = 5OUEHRA? and 89928554. Looking back at the mastermind puzzle that this 2nd number appeared from, I notice they have F's next to them. What if F = 89928554 and then the question is what is E. Either the code is 5OUEHRA? and we figure out the ? or we have to turn E into a number code once we have ?.
The reason I think we have to find ? as I feel it may not be U from Sunday. It could be that this code could turn into a number pattern and from the pattern we have our mystery digit. I have a good feeling we need to use the E code for the password as it coincidentally is the same length as our F code.
I have tried turning the letters into numbers which gives me a code of 5, 14, 21, 5, 8, 18, 1, 14 (Substituting ? for U). This didn't work. I also tried turning the 2 digit numbers into single digit numbers by adding their digits to together for 55358915 which didn't work either.
I'm gonna try a few more angles with this but hoping that bringing this idea to the table that someone else way more observant than myself can see something I can't.
