While it doesn't work with the example you've provided, there seem to be many entries on Audible with titles containing numbers with leading zeros (e.g., 007 Ian Fleming, various podcasts with dates in their titles, 08/15, ...).
I think always removing those is excessive, and I don't plan to add it to the official tag source at the moment.
