Perhaps better is to simply tweak a real FiguredBass context?

%%%  SNIPPET BEGINS
\score {
  <<
    \context FiguredBass
    \with {
      \override VerticalAxisGroup.staff-affinity = #DOWN
      \override VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing.padding = #1.5
      implicitBassFigures = #'(0)
    }
    \MvmntIVoiceIBassFiguresLine
    \new Staff = "Part 1"  <<
      \new Voice = "MvmntIVoiceI"  {
        \clef treble \key c \major \time 4/4 \MvmntIVoiceI
      }
    >>
  >>
}
%%%  SNIPPET ENDS

Hope this helps,
Kieren.
