Content of the files is like this:

32490000.00 5744000.00  258.95
32490000.00 5744001.00  259.09
...
32490000.00 5745999.00  321.90
32490001.00 5744000.00  259.04
...
32491999.00 5745999.00  410.93

So IMHO there are two problems reading these files:

1. Data is organized columnwise. While
<https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/xyz.html> doesn't state it explicitly,
I think GDAL expects data rowwise.

2. X values have a leading "32". To read coordinates with EPSG 25832
this "32" must be deleted.
