I don't follow the STR clearly here. Are you talking about checking for contact duplicates here with the numbers here?

17951 and 17911 are an IP phone service provided by China Telecom, so in China, if you want to dial a long distance number, you can prefix that number with 17951 and 17911, and that call will become an IP call with low rate. 

So the issue here is, in the Contact App we have two contacts with the same phone number, but different prefix, one is international prefix +86, one is IP phone prefix, 17951, so it looks like this:

A: [phone]
B: 1795115800123456

The issue here is even if user type in [phone] in the dialpad, the Contact app will map this number to B, not A. Guess it is because the matching mechanism only looks for the last 7 digit, and also just return the first match it found.
