Nuch--The numbers are apart of an equation that dictates when the world is going to end. They were also the numbers that showed up when the button needed to be pressed at the Swan?(forgot what station it was). How they are tied to the electromagnetic field that the swan was holding down, I have no idea. Maybe it's just some crazy physics and math beyond our comprehension (so to say). Smokey said that Jacob had a thing with numbers.
*The information on the numbers was from some Lost video game.
-Dharma went to the Island in hope to manipulate the numbers and let the world last longer.
