In probability theory, the birthday problem, or birthday paradox[1] pertains to the probability that in a set of randomly chosen people some pair of them will have the same birthday. In a group of 10 randomly chosen people, there is an 11.7% chance. In a group of at least 23 randomly chosen people, there is more than 50% probability that some pair of them will both have been born on the same day. For 57 or more people, the probability is more than 99%, and it reaches 100% when the number of people reaches 367 (there are a maximum of 366 possible birthdays). The mathematics behind this problem leads to a well-known cryptographic attack called the birthday attack. See Wikipedia for more: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birthday_paradox

What are the odds of two couples each with the same set of birthdays?
Odds deal with sets of numbers. You haven't given a group to work with. For example, the odds of two people having the same birthday approaches certainty with a group of thirty or more, but finding someone with your birthday would require 180, just to give a fifty/fifty chance.
