I don't know how the C-% in xterm comes about since by default xterm
doesn't encode multiple modifier keys on digits. There is a
"modifyOtherKeys" mode however that does support it. See the xterm
docs for details.
Meanwhile, mintty has a mintty-specific encoding for such combinations
that's based on numpad keycodes. The keycodes section of the mintty
man page has more on that. Xterm modifyOtherKeys mode is supported,
too.
