([0-9]) finds any single digit, in the number 987 it is the first digit 9, with
replacement $1 and ReplaceAll you told it to replace all with what was found,
that's what it did.

([^ ]*)[ ]*([^ ]*)
Let's analyze the expression:
First group is any number of characters except space, including 0 characters.
Followed by any number of spaces, including 0 spaces.
Followed by the second group of any number of characters except space, including
0 characters.

Actually that expression matches almost everything, it depends on greediness
what exactly is matched for the groups. The first group may already match
everything except a space, replacing with $1$2 replaces the match with itself.
Also leading and trailing spaces with one word would be matched by the
expression. If you want to match space between non-space characters then say so:
([^ ]+)[ ]+([^ ]+)

That an odd number of characters is replaced with itself twice using both, $1
and $2, as back references apparently is a bug.
