Now non-plussed how to tell libreoffice to tell it to treat them as
'real numbers' ?


​Short answer: it should work :)

If a cell is somehow stuck in the "text" type, you could try clearing all
formatting on this cell (defaults to Ctrl-M), or select the affected cells,
do right-click/properties, then select an appropriate number format.
However, LibreOffice should recognize number automatically unless
explicitely instructed to treat them as text; this can happen from weird
copy/paste, when opening files in exotic formats, or by doing it by hand.
It is also possible (although we didn't see a sample file) that there are
extra characters in the cells, or maybe an invalid decimal separator for
the file's locale.

​If you could upload a sample somewhere, we might get a better look at it
:)​
