Use regex to validate the number of digits. You will need additional onStepChanging and onFinishing parameters for steps().

The regex /^[0-9]{1,3}$/ will allow only upto 3 digits e.g. 1, 12, 123 will be allowed, but not 1234 and so on. You can write your own logic to warn user to enter max 3 digits.(e.g. red colored text)
Note: This regex will not allow blank value. To allow blank value modify regex as /^[0-9]{0,3}$/

EDIT:
You have 4 steps and every step has one input, so we need to validate the <input> which is visible on current step. So I have added current step's index(currentIndex in script) as suffix to measureinput class. You can notice measureinput0, measureinput1, measureinput2, measureinput3 classes for <input> in every <section>.

Now we can validate only current visible <input> in JavaScript.

$(function() {
  $("#wizard").steps({
    headerTag: "h2",
    bodyTag: "section",
    transitionEffect: "slideLeft",
    stepsOrientation: "vertical",
    enableKeyNavigation: true,

    onStepChanging: function(event, currentIndex, newIndex) { 
      
      // always clear error message on click of 'next' and 'previous'
      clearErrorMessage('measureinput' + currentIndex);      
      
      // in case of 'next', newIndex is greater than currentIndex
      // so below condition will validate only in case of 'next', not 'previous'
      if (currentIndex < newIndex) {     
        return ValidateField('measureinput' + currentIndex);
      }
      else {
        return true;
      }
    },

    onFinishing: function(event, currentIndex) {      
      return ValidateField('measureinput' + currentIndex);
    },
    onFinished: function(event, currentIndex) {      
        $("#form")[0].submit();      
    }
  });

  function ValidateField(classNameOfField) {
    var allFields = $("." + classNameOfField);
    for (i = 0; i < allFields.length; i++) {         
      if (/^[0-9]{1,3}$/.test(allFields[i].value)) {        
        return true;
      } else {
        //alert('Max 3 digits are allowed!'); // you can write your own logic to warn users 
        showErrorMessage(classNameOfField);
        return false;
      }
    }
  }
  
  function showErrorMessage(classNameOfField)
  {
    $("."+classNameOfField).css("border-color", "red");
    $("#errorMessage").css("display", "block");
  }
  
  function clearErrorMessage(classNameOfField)
  {
     $("."+classNameOfField).css("border-color", "black");
     $("#errorMessage").css("display", "none");
  }
});
