Considering that the numbers look very pixelated we could probably reproduce the same result with a 7x7 pixel grid for each number (29 pixels for an full 8), after that we could just scale up the image to 1280x960 using a cheap nearest neighbour algorithm. That way we could probably get away with a lot less. Even rendering a full 88,888,888 could be done with 232 pixels then.
