In that case, I'd be inclined to use a macro. As yet though, I don't know whether the numbers are in the headers or footers, whether they're on every page, or how much reformatting you've already done.

That may be due to the use of justification, tabs, etc. However, the use of narrow non-breaking spaces (202F,Alt-x), for example, should ensure consistency.

The Index is a field. Select and press Shift-F9 to expose the field code.

As I've said twice now, you should use a Word document , not a plain text file, for the concordance. Copy your plain text file's content into a Word document , select the content then use Insert|Table>Convert Text to Table to turn it into a single-column table, add a column to the Table and format the entries in the second column how you want them to appear in the Index.
