AFAIK  {register:menuNumber} and {field:somefield}
works only with datawrap.
I tryed to use it outside, but it simple doesn't work.

something.allWrap =<div id="{field:somefield}">...

is rendered AS SUCH and and the source code of the page renders the wrap 
as you have defined it witout parsing {field...}

I can put something BEFORE using datawrap.

something.dataWrap = <div>There are {register:menuNumber} subpages to 
the page: {field:title}|</div>

BUT that creates an independent block OUTSIDE the link
If you let it open (no </div>)

something.dataWrap = <div>There are {register:menuNumber} subpages to 
the page: {field:title}|

you can put before link anything you want.
The termination is then in some other wrap, for example 'allWrap' has 
extra </div>

Alternative you build the WHOLE link using datawrap
something.dataWrap = <div><a href="/{field:uid}/">{field:title} 
{register:menuNumber}|</a></div>
