Oops!  I was testing under bash...apparently echo has a somewhat broken echo
command (as it seems like you already found out).  The simple change works
for both bash and ash, and is still smaller:

Change:
>     echo -e -n "\b$i"

To:
  echo -e -n "\b"
  echo -n "$i"

Of course, there's always the alternate tack of:

while : ; do
 for i in 134 174 057 055 ; do
  echo -e -n "\b\\$i"
  sleep 1
 done
done

But that's probably even more confusing...
