Please read the section "How LilyPond files work" in the manual.
There you will learn that your example below is equivalent to
\score{
 \new Voice{ ... }
}

\score{
 \new FiguredBass \figuremode { ... }
}

In other words, you have typeset two separate scores, one
with the notes and one with the figures.

You have to tell LilyPond that you want these two to be
typeset together as a single score with two simultaneous
lines, see the section on "Music expressions explained"
in the Tutorial. For example, you can use
\score{
 <<
   \new Voice{ ... }
   \new FiguredBass \figuremode { ... }
  >>
}

I took the following example from the documentation, but added
the tailing g's.  No matter how many notes are cramed into the
line, the figures remain in the same place.  Aren't the figures
supposed to track with the notes similar to lyrics?

\version "2.10.17"
\new Voice {
  \clef bass dis4 c d ais g fis g g g g g g g g g g g g g
