If you only pressed ^A then it wasn't part of the command, but
rather an instruction to vim to auto-complete with all matching
patterns:
:help c_CTRL-A
What you want is to enter the ^A literally which can be done by
prefixing it with control+V:
:g/^\d/norm 16^V^A
which will appear as
:g/^\d/norm 16^A
as detailed at
:help c_CTRL-V
Hope that makes sense,
