Sigil shouldn't have any problem rendering it, Sigil uses WebKit.

But the Kindle, for example, will reset the numbering every once in a while (one or two screenfuls).

Much, much better to replace the numbering with a plain paragraph, beginning with the number you want.
Use a margin and negative text-indent to make the numbering appear to be outside the paragraph boundaries.

Diap -- sorry, I can't think of anything Sigil specific about that, other than "Use regex!!!".
