You are correct. _NXXXXXX matches 6137451. Once Asterisk sees 7
digits, the first digit not being a 1 or 0, and since it sees that no
other patterns can match, it immediately stops listening for DTMF and
starts dialing.
If you don't like that then add:
exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,1,Goto(i,1)
And that will match your 10 digits. But of course, since Asterisk now
has pattern matches for both 7 digit and 10 digit numbers, when you dial
a 7 digit number Asterisk will wait for DigitTimeout before deciding
that you wanted to dial 7 digits and not 10 digits.
Or you could add exten => _NXXXXXX.,1,Goto(i,1) Which will match 8 or
more digits.

Thanks for responding but I find that hard to believe.
Clearly 6137451576 doesn't match _NXXXXXX so why does it get executed?
It should fall thru. Since there's no other match so it should go to
my i extension.
It doesn't make sense that ${EXTEN} = 6137451 either given the number
dialled (what happened to the last three digits). It can't possibly
be designed to drop digits or the Dial command would never work!
I imagine that the erroneous ${EXTEN} value is related to the pattern
matching problem so that's understandable, but the pattern matching
(at least in this case) appears broken to me.

This is just the way Asterisk works.

Thanks, but the problem's with the first extension:
exten => _NXXXXXX,1,NoOp(Number dialed ${EXTEN})
exten => _NXXXXXX,n,Dial(Zap/1/${EXTEN})
The problem is I _do_ get a match as you can see by the CLI output,
but it shouldn't match IMO - 6137451576 shouldn't match _NXXXXXX but
that line gets executed.
