html links with numeric text are treated as a phone number (tel:)

Reported by andrian....@gmail.com, Oct 28 2016

Issue description

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Use an iphone with ios version 10.1 and chrome version 54.0.2840.66
2. Visit http://andrianoid.com/testbug/ 
3. Click on link '01956500'

What is the expected behavior?
Browser should follow the link (to www.google.com)

What went wrong?
Browser attempts to offer to dial 'phone number' '01956500 4'

Did this work before? Yes It worked correctly until the iOS version BEFORE 54.0.2840.66

Chrome version: 54.0.2840.66  Channel: stable
OS Version: 10.1
Flash Version: 

Confirmed this behaviour does not occur on latest android version (54.0.2840.66, with os 7.0), nor on Safari on the same test iphone (ios 10.1).
 
*android version is 54.0.2840.68
The issue appears it may have something to do with a link, followed by an element whose content begins with a number. For example, in the html in the provided https://andrianoid.com/testbug:

<div>
    <span>SC:</span>
    <span>
		<a href="http://www.google.com">01956500</a>
	</span>
    <span>4 Core Service Outage</span>
</div>

if the '4' in the '4 Core Service Outage' is omitted, the issue does not occur.
