There isn't a word for 80 (or if there is, it isn't used). It's
quatre vingt, which is four-twenty.
70 is sixty-ten and stuff like this, so there's something really traditional about the 20s.

Is France rooted in a base 20 system?

Edit: I looked it up and, yes, they are. (For all zero of you that cared :'( )
