Yes, if you use quotations, you must use double escapes. If you use  
braces, then only one escape is needed.

The d is "one numeric digit or more." The ?: basically means find the  
first one and stop -- saves on speed and memory versus matching the  
whole line.  * means 0 or more (and finally ? means 0 or 1 -- that's ?  
+ and * quantifiers).
