187 is an old California police code for a murder. Might still be in use, I don’t know. It came into more common knowledge with the song Deep Cover by Dr Dre and Snoop in 1992 with the lyrics “Yeah, and you don’t stop /
'Cause it’s 1-8-7 on a undercover cop”
Americans have so many weird number associations
420
10-4
7/11
401k
5150
187
411
Etc.
You lost me at 5150 and 187

Like half of those you listed are police codes that they use over the radios that seeped into common language.
