The page numbers are stored in an auxiliary file (APNX). This file is generated by calibre when using send to device and sent to the Kindle along with the book. The page numbers are not stored anywhere and need to be calculated from the MOBI itself. The only way to have page numbers on the Kindle without using send to device is to create a the APNX yourself and put it on the Kindle with the MOBI.
