tl;dr : 'Numpad' is the appropriate set of values to use.
The 'Digit*' keys are the one that happen to produce digits for an US layout
(and punct for the shifted state).
In other locales (like French), they do not produce numbers in their unshifted
state.
The 'Digit' name is based on the US layout usage (since we had to choose a
canonical layout for naming purposes). Thus, the 'Digit' name does not mean
that these are primarily digit keys (just like 'KeyA' does not produce an 'A'
in all locales.
The 'Numpad' keys, on the other hand, are primarily number keys that are
arranged in a grid. They are not affected by the current locale. These values
are appropriate for numpads (on keyboards), calculators and phones.
