Assuming that there is no error, the probability is 0. Your local number may be the same as someone from another town but your area code will be different so that the telephone number is different. If the area code + local numbers are the same then the country code will be different.

Telecommunication companies and their international umbrella organisation (ITU) ensure that when all the relevant country, area, exchange codes (etc) are included, there are enough numbers for every telephone and related device (fax machines), so that there are no duplicates.
