Strange issue with a DN - seems 'stuck' to a specific TN?

I'm almost sure this must be a bug in the code, I have a ticket open with our telco, but maybe someone has seen this before..

1 -> I had a SCR DN assigned to a TN, let's say 5551234 assigned to 4 0 8 1
2 -> I outed the TN, as it was supposed to be taken out of service. Someone then lets me know that it's still required.
3 -> I went to recreate the TN with the SCR 5551234, and it said I wasn't able to create it, because it conflicts with existing call config or something along those lines. Basically that the DN was already in use. Very strange, I had just outed the only phone that was using it.
4 -> Create a new TN with the same config on 4 0 8 1, except no numbers. Print it out, and verify that there are no numbers configured (acd, scr, etc - nothing).
5 -> Print DNB 5551234, and it shows up as assigned to 4 0 8 1 on Key 3. Print the TN again, no numbers assigned (triple checked).
6 -> Out the TN again, print DNB 5551234, does not exist. Create the TN again (with no numbers), print DNB 5551234, shows up as key 3 on 4 0 8 1 (though it's definitely NOT configured there).

Tearing my hair out (if I had any) with this one. Where could this number be sticking around? How can I remove it so I can reprogram the number on this set?

Cheers
 
Stab in the dark here. What happens if you program an SCR on key 3 with a different DN. Save it. Then go in and NUL key 3. See if that makes it go away?
 
Just a thought
What if you did a LD 11 CHG on 4 0 8 1 and NUL on Key 3
 
Unfortunately tried most of these already (figured maybe some memory had an old value that just didn't get removed when I outed the TN?). Tried them again, still no luck.

DN 5556789 <--- this is what's currently configured on key 03
TYPE SL1
TN 004 0 10 09 V KEY 03 H MARP DES ADMIN 28 AUG 2013
(3903)

DN 5551234 <---- This is the DN that seems to be stuck
TYPE SL1
TN 004 0 10 09 V KEY 03 H MARP DES ADMIN 28 AUG 2013
(3903)

They're both showing up on Key 03 of the same TN, but only the top one is configured. If I NUL key 3, and print 5551234, it still shows up on Key 03 of the set :/
 
Maybe it's time to poke it in the eye off hours to see if that clears any memory issues.
 
Check that the DN isn't stuck in the CPND. I had a case like yours a few times and there are two ways of clearing it.
The quickest way is probably to reboot the switch. Of course this isn't a good idea for a call centre!.

The other way is a little more tricky, but you need to have knowledge of "pdt" corruption and clear it that way. I've done both methods to resolve the problem.
