The most likely reason is that there is no telnet daemon running on the computer. Other reasons may be that you are connecting on the wrong port, or your client is on the hosts.deny list.

Why should telnet to UDP port fail?

A single port can be configured to listen for UDP or TCP inbound connection requests (or both). Telnet uses TCP. So when you telnet to a specific IP:port, telnet will attempt to make a TCP connection. If there is no TCP listener on the port you specify, then the connection request will be refused. It matters not if you have a UDP listener on the port. Telnet will not be able to establish a connection to a UDP port.
