I've received a call with caller id "002006", which is nothing like anything I've seen before.

The call terminated almost immediately after I answered it.

Does the Caller ID mean anything to anyone else?

I had a few strange ones a while back, never discovered why at the time. Funnily enough, I stumbled across some info a couple of days ago when looking for something completely different, went to a news group called uk.telecom and discovered it is possible to generate a "false" CLI in certain circumstances where service is provided by a small number of providers. Don't remember any more than that sorry.
