I have a bunch of old Windows .doc files where the german umlauts are
shown like this (on my Debian) for example:
\201 \267

Try C-q 2 0 1 <SPC or RET>
or  C-q 2 6 7 <SPC or RET>

You seem to see four characters, but it is only a helpful presentation of a character that can't be displayed because it's outside the encoding you are using.
