Remember in old movies, where
somebody would pick up the telephone and say,
"Operator,
I need Oxford -5 0456"?
Oxford was the name of the local telephone exchange (or Bell central
office), represented on your telephone by its first two letters:
OX, or 69. So, the modern
number would be 695-0456.
This is why in a particular area, most phone numbers historically began with
the same two digits.
