$(".box > span").length does not regard your different input types. It might be easier to clear everything and recreate the whole output on change. That way the entries also keep the order of input.

$(".change_qty").change(function(){
  //REM: Remove all entries
  $(".box").empty();

  //REM: Recreate all entries
  $(".change_qty").each(function(){
    let tThis = $(this);
    let tText = tThis.data('text');
    let tQuantity = Math.abs(tThis.val());
    
    //REM: Append quantity of entries to .box
    for(let i=0, j=tQuantity; i<j; i++){
      $(".box").append(`<span >${tText}<br /></span>`)
    }
  })
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input class="form-control input-sm change_qty"  type="number" data-text="apple">
<input class="form-control input-sm change_qty"  type="number" data-text="bananas">
<input class="form-control input-sm change_qty"  type="number" data-text="cherry">

<div class="box" ></div>
