I'd be surprised if Facebook ever deletes anything like this voluntarily. Most likely "deleting the number" just means hiding it and using it only of ad targeting and more subtle forms of profile matching.

They'll pay a fine, perhaps, but it's not like Mark Zuckerberg will be laying in a gutter pissing blood.
Regardless, you can't put the cat back in the bag. Bad actors will still have scrapped your number, or way too much personal identifying information, anyway.
