Maybe check the phone's call log (Recents). It could still be there if it was not yet cleared. Realize that it may just be a meaningless number to you unless you actually recognize it. Since you don't have a name (contact) assigned to the number, you may be grasping at straws trying to associate a number to someone.
If the number is not in your contacts and assigned to someone, it likely is nowhere else on the phone except for in Recents.
