probably have to make your own or modify an existing mechanical 10-key with a teensy microcontroller.

If it had an Fn key that your thumb rests on, and Fn-0 did 000, would that work for you you?

Something like this...

Can you not just get something custom that you can program yourself?

Isn't there a DIP switch on the Topre numpads that changes the 00 to 000?

If you are on windows use Autohotkey to make a script for that. You could make it default to 000 and if you just wanted a single 0, hold the key down for a second and make an event for that.

I studied about Keymap software of KMAC Pad & LightPad. They seems not have "000" function, so I 'll go to buy Realforce Numpad.
Thanks to everyone :)
