Literally only because of "teen/ten" difference. Everything else matches up, except that the roles of the cardinal stem (three) and the ordinal stem (thir) are swapped in 13 and 30 for German

Three, thirteen, thirty, third vs Drei, Dreizehn, Dreißig, Dritte

Used 3 as an example because it's the most irregular out of the 9 non-zero digits in German
