These example bindings should actually look like this:

  bind Sh-M-U "^[Oc^[[1;6D^T|sed 's/.*/\U&/'^M" main
  bind Sh-M-L "^[Oc^[[1;6D^T|sed 's/.*/\L&/'^M" main

Make sure to use nano to edit your nanorc files.
And copy and paste from there.

Did you rebind ^T to "Go to line number"?  The above example bindings
assume that ^T has its default binding, to the "Execute" function.
