There are px, em, pts, and % but in your case you should problem stick with em's. As I look at your results I think you need to use negative indents. The idea is to set the margin for the paragraph where you want the follow-on lines of the paragraph and and then outdent (a negative text-indent) where you want the numbers. For example:

{ margin-left: 5em; text-indent: -2.5em; }

this is the trick I uses for outlines and poems.
