Parts is parts, but all together ...

I understand the individual pieces of the following (with one exception ..), but how does it all work as one?
Code:
find ${HOME}/reports/ -name surveyresult*.txt -exec ls -1 {} \; | /usr/xpg4/bin/grep -E  \
"${HOME}/reports/surveyresult[0-9]{14,14}.txt" | sort > ${ResultsFileList}

Find all files like surveyresults*.txt and list them ({}=on the same line??), then take those files names that are like surveyresult[0-9] and place them in the result file.

However, my understanding of surveyresult[0-9]{14,14}, the {14,14} means that it is looking for a minimum & maximum of 14 matches of [0-9] - which will never happen, as there can be at most 10 (???)

What would this result file contents look like?
