0x32303136 - 0x30303030 = 0x02000106 0x36313032 - 0x30303030 = 0x06010002 how is 0x02000106 the same as 0x06010002?

  When you show the string in memory order, they are the same. Its the operation on the string that's important, not the way you print the hex byte-order-dependent value. Both become 01 00 01 06

    But we're trying to convert the string "2016" to the integer 2016. we want to turn the sequence [0x32, 0x30, 0x31, 0x36] (same on both architectures) into [0x00, 0x00, 0x07, 0xe0] in big endian or [0xe0, 0x07, 0x00, 0x00] in little endian. You can't simply perform the same procedure in both architectures since it'll result in a reversed sequence in one of them...
