Need immediate help with sorting!!!

hey,
I have a file that looks smthng like this:
/*--- abcd_0050 ---*/
asdfjk
adsfkja
lkjljgafsd

/*---abcd_0005 ---*/
lkjkljbfkgj
ldfksjgf
dfkgfjb

/*-- abcd_0055--*/
klhfdghd
dflkjgd
jfdg

I would like it to be sorted so that it looks like this:
/*---abcd_0005 ---*/
lkjkljbfkgj
ldfksjgf
dfkgfjb

/*--- abcd_0050 ---*/
asdfjk
adsfkja
lkjljgafsd

/*-- abcd_0055--*/
klhfdghd
dflkjgd
jfdg

Basically, it sorts according to the numbers in the comment lines. What commands do I execute in the shell to get this?
