Late reply, but I'd never noticed that either, wow. At first glance, I assume this might be due to possible other readings of 7 and 10's kanji? I went to go look this up, silly as it sounds, and google translate did the same thing -- "Three" became 三, but "seven" and "ten" became 7 and 10. Further tests show that it can translate them as "七" and "十" respectively, when it wants at least (or when I make it try). Mostly thought that it was funny in this context, but it could be something?

Another part of it might be tied to the pronunciation? I can see that 10nin is said to be pronounced "Juunin" at least, so I'm not 100% sure. My girlfriend, who is leaps and bounds farther than me in Japanese, is kind of insistent that this might be the case, but is really unsure why without more context.
