Well how the hell did you just type them?!
Just kidding – I don't think there is a universal key for them, but some fonts will contain them as characters, if they have an extensive enough set.
If was designing a document for print, I'd edit them myself using a combination of kerning, baseline shift and reducing the to point size.

They don't appear to have keyboard shortcuts on the US/English OS X layout.

Point your mouse over to 'Edit' in the menu bar, at the bottom there is the 'Special Character...' option.
When that loads, make sure the top left drop down is 'Roman', then select 'Digits'.
You can put these into that 'Favorites' tab by selecting the character and going to the very bottom left of the window, and clicking the little cog.
