When originally added it was only possible to terminate based on a
termination DTMF, so you'd know which DTMF key was used because no other
DTMF would stop. Afterwards a community member contributed a change[1]
to add an option to allow any DTMF key to terminate it, but the dialplan
variable stuff was not extended to make the knowledge of which DTMF was
used available.

Within the code f->subclass.integer is where the DTMF digit is. You'd
need to make a code change to set another dialplan variable which
contains it.
