"Soixante-dix" would be 70 no matter how you look at it, and 0x6A is obviously "cent six".
That's why you need a new suffix as well as new names for exponentials instead of trying to retrofit existing number-naming convention. (Same thing is true for English as well)
So let this new hexadecimal suffix would be -anze, 16 ^ 3 is hexmille, 16 ^ 2 is hexcents,
0xB78D = 46989 would be "onze hexmille sept hexcents huitanze treize." or "quarante six mille neuf cents quatre-vingt neuf"
