Subject: comparing a string to a number?

I've recently taken over an app that I didn't develop.
I found this in the code:
<xsl:if test="/Output/response/Field < '20'">
This is confusing to me for a few reasons.
1) The '20' is in quotes
2) the value of the Field node is most often a number, but on some occasions it's a letter/number pair, like 1A or 1B.
Can this check ever work? Would 1A ever be "less" than '20'?
