This isn't a general property of irrational numbers, although with probability 1 any irrational number will have this property.

True enough. it would seem that irrational number is not the correct term for the set I refer to.

The property you are looking for is normalness to base 10. See normal number.

ETA: Actually, you want simple normalness to base 10 which is slighly weaker.
