It's not, It's actually a very good question.

The only way you will have Amazon page numbers is if you download the book to your Kindle using 3G or Wifi. Or if you manually copy the book plus the APNX file to your Kindle. The page numbers are in the APNX file.
If you have a book on your Kindle that has page numbers (APNX file) and you use Send to Device for that same book in calibre the APNX file will be replaced with calibre's.
Calibre itself does not store APNX files with the book. So any files within calibre you put on the Kindle using Send to Device will never have the Amazon page numbers. I don't foresee a conflict because a user sending a book to their Kindle that is already on their Kindle is slim (especially if it's a purchased DRM protected book that cannot be converted).
