There are a number of ways that Caller ID can deliver erroneous results. If your wife's employer has a PBX (a kind of business phone system), then the PBX must send valid Caller ID to the local phone company. If her employer and your home phone use different local phone companies, the one company has to hand off the Caller ID data to the other. The data then gets handed down the phone line to your home, where it must be accurately captured by your Caller ID display.
A glitch in any one of those steps can cause you to get garbled Caller ID data.

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
