Put \dontleavehmode before \externalfigure, e.g.

     \dontleavehmode\externalfigure[box3mm]

and in case the number is still moved to the next line because there 
isn’t enough space left you can put an unbrakbale space between the 
graphic and number, e.g.

     \dontleavehmode\externalfigure[box3mm]~1
