Default Sorting By Largest Value In A String

I would like to find the largest value, in a string of values in a
cell. The, using that information, i would like to sort the rows in a
worksheet by that largest value.

A representative cell contains characters like this:

141, 141, 130, 130, 108 and 108

For instance, I woulld like for it to say 141 is the largest value.
Then, it should sort the rows containing these cells by that largest
value.

Can anyone give me a function, or program, that would allow me to do
this?

Thanks,
Alan
