I think it's related to the replacement of words with digits. There are some overlapping words, for example in "eightwothree" the "t" is used for both "eighT" and "Two". In this case the order of replacement differs your result. It either becomes "8wo3" or "eigh23".
I think you may be right but the problem is at the end of the string. I'll add some test cases and rewrite the code. I think I'll have to ditch the regex replacements and scan through instead so I don't clobber the string in the wrong place.
