Find in files issue

So, I'm back with another, pretty much similar question. I've got a catalogue, with about 60k text files. Every file contains a single line of text with variable number of characters. Here are some examples, which will make my case easier to understand:

Example file 1.
Code:
[...]<item id="2506"/><item id="3000"/><item id="2506"/><item id="3000"/>[...]

Example file 2.
Code:
[...]<item id="2506"/><item id="3000"/><item id="3000"/><item id="3000"/>[...]

Example file 3.
Code:
[...]<item id="3000"/><item id="3000"/><item id="3000"/><item id="3000"/>[...]

Example file 4.
Code:
[...]<item id="2506" special_description="blablabla"/>[...]

Example file 5.
Code:
[...]<item id="2506" special_description="lololol"/>[...]

And I've got two issues.
Issue 1. I'd like to know how many '<item id="2506"/>' records do I have in the catalogue, with specific filenames added. So in the example case I'd print something like:
example file 1 name
example file 1 name
example file 2
Since Example file 1 contains the string two times, example file 2 contains only a single record, and 3,4,5 doesn't. Is it possible to do?

Issue 2. I'd like to find every record of <item id="2506" that has the special_description in it's arguments, and print out the special_description value.
I'd see it like this:
Filename(example file4) and here printed out the x characters after the <item id="2506", so I'd see the special_description. Final output:
example file 4 special_description="blablabla"
example file 5 special_description="lololol"

I'm sorry if it's a little chaotic. I've tried different arguments of grep, but failed at both cases.
Cheers.

The error strings will have the following format: [pid]:error:[error code]:[library name]:[function name]:[reason string]:[file name]:[line]:[optional text message] error code is an 8 digit hexadecimal number. library name, function name and reason string are ASCII text, as is optional text message if one was set for the respective error code. If there is no text string registered for the given error code, the error string will contain the numeric code. RETURN VALUES
ERR_print_errors() and ERR_print_errors_fp() return no values. SEE ALSO
