As you can see, col #1, row #1 is parsed as a float.
Actually, it is not a float:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var table=table20170119 :colnames yes :results pp
(number-to-string (nth 1 (car table)))
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS:
: "1234567890"
Maybe this is what you want:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var table=table20170119 :colnames yes :results pp
(map 'list (lambda (row) (format "%s" (nth 1 row))) table)
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS:
: ("1234567890" "a" "b" "c")
HTH,
