Did you try adding sorting based on Order column?
Try following this Microsoft official documentation once and see if it works for you: Use sorting to modify a SharePoint list view

Yes. The Month is a managed metadata column, and that sorting order does not appear anywhere in the columns sorting tab.- Hanne_LauritzenOct 25, 2024Iron Contributor
1. The quick link directly from the list to sorting only shows visible columns. Instead go through "Edit current view" on the View tab -> find the "Sort" section -> Select your column "Order":
2. Make sure the column "Order" is a "Number" and not "Text"
