The Verizon 5G Home Internet service is using cellular technology, and thus is tied to a real (but not usable for anything else) phone number. Your Verizon Account Number will be something else.

It is understandable that seeing a random looking phone number is confusing and off-putting, however, have no worries. It's a completely normal part of having Internet service provided over cellular networks.
