Have you tried the Dimon utility from AFNI? It may do what you want.
I think it reads the headers in the DICOM files to ensure that they
are in the correct order and it can (as far as I understand it, I've
never used it) create a script to convert the DICOM files to AFNI's
HEAD/BRIK format from which it is trivial to convert to NIfTI
(3dAFNItoNIFTI).
