Randomly loop through 0-9 and stop at a given number
I have very little knowledge about AE and following is my requirement.
I want to randomly loop through 0-9 for 10 seconds and stop at a number I decide and I want to do this for a 6 digit number.
ex: Say the number I want to display is 645237. What should happen is in the beginning all 6 digits start to display random numbers and after 10 seconds left most number stops at 6 and others continue to randomly display numbers. after next 10 seconds (total 20 seconds from the start) 2nd digit from the left should stop at 4 etc..
I checked few YT tutorials which use slider / rotation method and they are generating 2-3 digits or even larger numbers instead of looping through 0-9.
I also tried a tutorial which shows type 0-9 vertically and then using masking to only display one number but looks like I have to vertically type 0-9 may be 100s of time to rotate it at a reasonable speed for 10 seconds.
Is this a fairly simple thing to do or does it require expert level knowledge? If it is a fairly simple can some one please guide?
Thanks in advance.

I would create an text layer and add an Character Offset Animator.
Set the Start Range Selector to 6.
Animate the End Range Selector starting with 0 to 6 and toggle hold the keyframes
apply an Expression to Character Offset and type
time*10
