This is not an egg, it's a bug. Given a file, notepad tries to understand whether it's ANSI or Unicode using a heuristic. This heuristic fails for 4+3+3+5 (and maybe some other short) text. If you want your text correctly, save the file as Unicode (File/save as). It's funny to find an interesting string matching the criteria though.
