I don't think this will match anything for wich the last 5 digits are
a number between 00000 and 39999. But you gave me an idea and
I modified it to

\\(1[4-9]\\|[2-9][0-9]\\)[0-9]\\{4,\\}

which still has a problem with numbers containing more than 6 digits
of which the first is a 1 and the second smaller than 4. Adding
another bit like so

\\(1[4-9]\\|[2-9][0-9]\\|[1-9][0-9][0-9]\\)[0-9]\\{4,\\}

does the trick.

Thanks,
Tom
