And, on some older movies, they just ask for "457" or something like that.

Don't all American numbers start with 555? I mean, watch any movie and they all start with that!
Our area codes are three of four numbers, all start with a 0. That has been as long as I can remember. But, somewhere in '95, they added an extra number to the phone number. So, before we had 9 digits, now we have 10. The area code was unchanged. They added either a 3 or a 5. That's how you can now recognize an older (updated) number, the chance that a new number starts with a 3 or a 5 is much, much lower
