actually if you have a look at this list (here the most used values):

494 060
*phone* <http://taginfo.openstreetmap.com/keys/phone>
99 706
contact:*phone* <http://taginfo.openstreetmap.com/keys/contact%3Aphone>
10 592
payment:tele*phone*_cards
<http://taginfo.openstreetmap.com/keys/payment%3Atelephone_cards>
10 045
openGeoDB:tele*phone*_area_code
<http://taginfo.openstreetmap.com/keys/openGeoDB%3Atelephone_area_code>
8 093
communication:mobile_*phone*
<http://taginfo.openstreetmap.com/keys/communication%3Amobile_phone>
1 648
emergency_tele*phone*_code
<http://taginfo.openstreetmap.com/keys/emergency_telephone_code>
1 079
tele*phone* <http://taginfo.openstreetmap.com/keys/telephone>

These are not actually telephone numbers (besides the first 2) but mostly
other telephone related attributes (have a look at the values, e.g. here:
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.com/keys/telephone#values ) with a few
exceptions (low usage).

What come after these on the following 16 pages are tags with very few
usage (all below 1000) and will be fixed sooner or later or is not about a
phone number.

Cheers,
Martin
