Yeah, RDBMS makes sense. In this case, would it be better to simple
store those in a relational database and just use Lucene to do
indexing for the text?

Have you considered left-padding your numbers with zeros to make each
number a string of the same length?
e.g., The number 5 would be indexed/queried as "5", which can be
correctly compared to 10 ("00010"), 2345 ("02345"), etc. in a lexical
comparison...
