What ୯ means
It is nine written with Odia numerals.
Odia writing developed from older South Asian writing systems, including Siddham and Gaudi. An inscription from the 11th century is among the earliest evidence for the Odia language and script; inscriptions at Puri dated 1211–1238 show early Odia numerals. Writing on palm leaves influenced the script's rounded forms, and its modern stage is placed in the 14th–16th centuries.

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
