That's absolutely not true. I've checked websites for every PD I've ever lived in and not one mentions an emergency number other than 911.

I'm not going to out myself by listing my local PD, but I can see a 9 digit number that, when I've called in the past, routed me to dispatch.
If 911 is down, you should call a specific police station. They will be broken down into zones or districts in larger cities, and I can see phone numbers for zones in two cities I've lived in on their sites.
