Did you get this resolved?

The simplest option is to remove the number altogether and regenerate it using Autonumber.

Remember that the files are renamed from top to bottom, so you might want to reverse the sort order and count DOWNWARDS (to avoid clashes when renaming 1 to 2, 2 to 3 etc). Or you can tick the "rename in reverse order" option.
