00 and 001 or 011 or 0011 are often used as prefixes to indicate

one 
enters "19" as the prefix for international dialing... so for example, from 
France one might dial 19-1-212-555-1212 for NYC directory assistance.

This is rather out of date. AIUI the entire EU uses 00 for international 
calling. Indeed when I was last in France (in February) I had to use 0044... 
to call home, not 1944...

The UK switched to 00 from 010 in 1995, when all geographic area codes
switched from 0xxx to 01xxx.
