Many thanks to Casper Dik who came up with the solution:
%xmodmap -e 'clear mod3'
You can find out that mod3 is associated with the Num_Lock key by running
xmodmap without switches or arguments:
% xmodmap
xmodmap: up to 3 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):
shift Shift_L (0xe8), Shift_R (0xec)
lock
control Control_L (0xe7), Control_R (0xeb), Control_L (0x40)
mod1 Alt_L (0xe9)
mod2 Mode_switch (0xed)
mod3 Num_Lock (0x5a)
mod4 Meta_L (0xea), Meta_R (0xee)
mod5
