Sure it's not 4 5 and 6? Or are you running a different style of keyboard?

Based on this image, it looks as if those might be coming on because the function key is pressed/stuck.

Just a guess...

I would guess on Dave's second guess of the function key. We use those exact laptops here at my work.

My Dell laptop has a function sequence you can use to turn keys in the vicinity of the keys you listed into a pseudo numeric keyboard. Probably for accountants & such. You use a different function sequence to put the keyboard back to normal. Check the documentation for your particular laptop, my Dell actually has the alternate numbers printed on the keycaps.
