You are, of course, right, technically speaking, a left-to-right-mark (‎) should be inserted between the Hebrew text and the following numeral. I suggested a non-joiner because it has the same effect and can be easily added in InDesign via
Type > Insert Special Character > Other > Non-joiner.
@rewyn: AFAIK, you'll need to use the ME edition of InDesign for proper RTL handling, unless Adobe has added RTL support in recent InDesign versions.
BTW, unless you happen to read Hebrew, you might not even notice the lack of RTL support. For example, the Hebrew word
Ivrit should be displayed as:
עברית, however, without RTL support, you'll get
תירבע, which looks somewhat similar.

ADE 4 supports RTL languages, but only in ePub3 books. RMSDK 11 supposedly also supports ePub 3 and RTL languages, however, I haven't seen RMSDK 11 apps with RTL support in the wild so far.
There are some apps for mobile devices that support ePub3 and RTL text (for example iBooks and Gitden), but they don't support Adobe ADEPT DRM, which makes them uninteresting for most publishers and ebook readers.
For all of the above reasons, I'd strongly recommend using an svg image, unless the OP's client publishes books only in the iBooks Store.
