This will do a simple Find:
&#x.{4,5};
But it is based on a single occurrence on a line
Need to see the context where these may be located.
More than one on a line? Separated by what type of text?
All strung together where ; is the delimiter?
In the body of general text sentences?
Etc.
How do you want to select them?
Bookmark each line with a match
Have the chosen string selected one at a time, ie: Find/Find Next/Find Next/?
Do you want to do anything with the chosed string? Replace the numbers with something else. Replace any of the other characters? Remove the chosen string from its surrounding text?
Etc.
