Looks like redhat el5. Probably it is the collating order of your locale setting that makes A-Z include lowercase characters

Try either:
Code:
wc -l *.[[:lower:]][[:lower:]][[:upper:]]

which should work for any locale setting

or
Code:
export LC_COLLATE=C
wc -l *.[a-z][a-z][A-Z]

which changes the collation order for your locale to the one use by the C locale.
