Does a mutual destruction by the numbers trigger the Taunt ability in a Taunt battle?

I don't think so. The list in the REG seems like only things that are normally a win for an EC count as a win for a taunt.

Winning the Taunt Battle Challenge
Your Evil Character can win the Taunt Battle Challenge in one of four ways:
1. Your opponent does not accept the Taunt Battle Challenge by placing a Hero in battle to oppose the Evil
Character.
2. All Heroes are removed from the Field of Battle by a special ability.
3. The Evil Character wins by a defeat by numbers (i.e. the strength of all Evil Characters and Evil
Enhancements in battle are greater than or equal to the toughness of all Heroes and good Enhancements in battle, and the toughness of all Evil Characters and Evil Enhancements is higher than the strength of all Heroes and good Enhancements in battle.
4. The battle ends as a stalemate by numbers or special ability.
