For 911 emergency, rotary telephones were the reason it’s 911 not 999. The numbers go from one to nine followed by zero. One is the fastest to dial, each number takes more time. Zero takes the most time to dial. 9 was used to have fewer accidental emergency calls, 11 was used as they are the fastest two to dial. So it’s mostly about allowing a faster dialing time for emergency services. I wonder if rotary calls are still available in the USA.

111 should have been way faster, since 9 was almost at the end of the number dial. and took way longer to send the signal (nine tick), while the number 1 only needed 1 tick to send the signal, and you needed a way longer handmovement to make number 9 then 1 also. Or am I missing something?

Emergency numbers started with nine because on rotary dial phones that was the longest turn around the dial short of zero, so it was least likely to be accidentally triggered, very long, but not too long. In the US, if you made it all the way around once correctly, you must have really meant it, so you only had to confirm with two short dials. In the UK, the authorities really don't want to be bothered unless you make the effort the whole way through. No firefighters or ambulance for you rapidly weakening 998 dialers.

By international agreement 999 will dial 911 in the US and vice versa for most emergency dialing no matter what country you're in; it's expected that if you're in another country and in a high stress situation that would call for an emergency response you might not be thinking clearly enough to remember the difference so it's already been coded in to work with any of the combinations in use.

999 is due to the old fashioned dial phones. To dial a 9 took longer than most digits and children rarely dialled it in play. The USA chose 911, the very rare 9 at the front and the 2 quockest digits. Google Rotary phones at check out images.

No, 1 is the quickest digit to dial on a rotary dial. The reason 9 was chosen was technical around how billing used to work, for payphones you could already freely dial 0 for the operator (0 was 10 pulses), 9 being next to zero made it the next easiest to modify the exchanges to allow numbers containing only 9s also be made free of charge from payphones.

Why 999, as opposed to 911? Well it's complicated, but it's to do with how the tech evolved. There's a James May (Captain Slow, the geeky one from Top Gear) series of shorts (kinda) that dismantles various devices whilst going into the history of tech. One he did was the telephone and he explains the reasons begin 999 and 911. I think I've seen the episodes on youtube so...... If you're really bothered. Sounds boring, but they're actually not. He gets it all the information correct, but injects a bit of Brit humour in there as well. Engaging.
