onKey(event){
  var ele = event.split('-').join('');
  if(ele.length > 0){
    ele = ele.match(new RegExp('.{1,3}', 'g')).join("-");

}

Input type number does not allow non-numeric characters (because it's type=number). Notice you can input e character - it's because e is a valid number.

Try to use input type tel with pattern attribute, e.x.:

<input id='phone-num' type='tel' pattern="[0-9\-]+">
