What does the Caller ID 1123456789 mean on your phone?
I am not sure, if the number displayed is a valid call ID number, but Caller ID displays the phone number of the person who made the call to you including the area code and phone number. From this you an identify the person calling you. If you have a phone book system in the phone and you have saved phone numbers with names, some phones will display name of the person from the address book when the caller id matches the stored number. Some times the number displayed on caller ID is not a standard phone number. Some of these calls may be from a VOIP service or from some customer service call centers (internal on the service provider network) or when the caller ID is masked by the caller or caller's network service provider. - Neeraj Sharma

More importantly, the caller ID feature that we have come to trust is not as secure as it was in the past. Anybody can change or fake the number that is displayed on the caller ID with a simple spoof calling card. Be careful and remember that anyone can change their caller ID number.
