This seems more like a Unix question than a BIND question. How you do this
is independent of what the files are used for. Any way, the simplest way
is:
perl -i.bak -e 's/old/new/' db.*
If you don't have perl, use:
for file in db.*; do
sed 's/old/new/' $file > $file.new
mv $file $file.bak
mv $file.new $file
done

I hope I figured out the right way to unmunge your address.
