It may just be a simple numeric sort, similar to how Unix will too if you ask it to. Letters are seen as sorted before numbers, however zero (a zero value, even if 75 characters long) will be before them all. A shorter number of leading zeros is sorted before longer ones, of the same value.
You might illustrate it with this:-

locale(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide locale(3pm)NAME
locale - Perl pragma to use or avoid POSIX locales for built-in operations
SYNOPSIS
@x = sort @y; # Unicode sorting order
{
use locale;
@x = sort @y; # Locale-defined sorting order
}
@x = sort @y; # Unicode sorting order again
DESCRIPTION
This pragma tells the compiler to enable (or disable) the use of POSIX locales for built-in operations (for example, LC_CTYPE for regular
expressions, LC_COLLATE for string comparison, and LC_NUMERIC for number formatting). Each "use locale" or "no locale" affects statements
to the end of the enclosing BLOCK.
Starting in Perl 5.16, a hybrid mode for this pragma is available,
use locale ':not_characters';
which enables only the portions of locales that don't affect the character set (that is, all except LC_COLLATE and LC_CTYPE). This is
useful when mixing Unicode and locales, including UTF-8 locales.
use locale ':not_characters';
use open ":locale"; # Convert I/O to/from Unicode
use POSIX qw(locale_h); # Import the LC_ALL constant
setlocale(LC_ALL, ""); # Required for the next statement
# to take effect
printf "%.2f
", 12345.67' # Locale-defined formatting
@x = sort @y; # Unicode-defined sorting order.
# (Note that you will get better
# results using Unicode::Collate.)
See perllocale for more detailed information on how Perl supports locales.
