this seems to be mandated by POSIX. From

http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/utilities/ex.html#tag_04_45_13_31

| If the # flag is specified or the number edit option is set, each line
| shall be preceded by its line number in the following format:
|
| "%6dΔΔ", <line number>

(The "ΔΔ" probably represents two spaces.)

Regards,
Jürgen
