numbers like a song

Does anyone else do this?

Whenever I'm retrieving messages from my phone at work, 9 times out of 10 the person will say their phone number really quickly, like 99893243 rather than 99-89-32-43. (Random number by the way, don't ring it on my behalf lol).

Instead of playing their message back, I try and give a pitch/tone to each number as they say it. Most times it'll come out like a little song and I've got the number down correctly. Kinda like playing the song on a piano and each number is a different key.

I think there's a term for this?
