In saucy the combination is Alt + LShift + NumLock. The problem is that it is 
not listed in Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Universal Access.
It's also difficult to find Settings > Universal Access > Pointing and Clicking 
> Mouse Keys (Control the pointer using the keypad) to go back to normal 
behavior after using the combination by mistake.
In fact it was easier for me to find 
org/gnome/desktop/a11y/keyboard/mousekeys-enable=true using dconf dump / (this 
is a paradox about accessibility! )

Bug description:
  I am using Hardy Heron and several times now I have tried to use my
  number pad only to discover that they now move the mouse. I don't know
  if there is a short cut key I am hitting on accident, but it is rather
  annoying. Then sometimes when I disable mouse keys, the numlock
  becomes switched so that the system thinks numlock is on when the
  light is off and vice-versa.

  Update: the shortcut is: shift+num-lock
