Leading zero in route-map has unexpected results

I wanted to add a leading zero in my router configuration to provide me
information within the tag (ex. 03 router 120 rip admin 03120) When I add
the leading zero I get a 1616 in the route tag. Converting 1616 octal to
decimal gives me the result of 3120. interesting. Like ping from windows
with a leading zero.
