My guess is that Dharma was trying to codify and harness the island’s amazing power, the way that adults (and especially scientists and businesses) tend to approach any mysterious effect. Notice also that in Peter Pan, the Lost Boys and Peter are safest when they’re in their underground lair which they reach through a hollow tree.

As I said, I haven’t put this all together yet. The numbers must fit in there some way as well. Perhaps they’re the result of Dharma’s experiments, their means of imposing order on Neverland. As long as they’re input into the computer every 108 minutes, the bunker can go on violating the laws of the island with its own laws of science. That’s why the signs say quarantine on the inside of the bunker doors. Once you get outside the bunker, you’re working under Neverland laws, not those of reality as we know it.
