A DisConundrum!

I have a question for all y'all:

On one of the Zeke Manners records I posted (Organ Grinders Swing, at 1:20), when somebody starts counting up (they're going to the toy shop on the eighth floor), he says "five...six...uh...eight."

Why?

Hats off to all correct answerers...and a lifetime supply of Uncle Eugene's Special Aged Peanut Butter Sandwiches to the first correct one.

I'll have the correct answer up someday soon...I'll give y'all a couple of days to think about it.

    To answer the Uh question, is there not a tune where the singer tells us to count and put the Uh sound in instead of a seven? There are more sound substituions for other numbers and combinations.
