Just out of curiosity asking this silly question:

From where does these VoIP guys or the Skype messaging company gets so many phone numbers?

They have tons of phone numbers of US, UK, CA and other countries as well.

How is it possible for a company to get these numbers?

Large companies like Skype partner with telecom providers to buy blocks of phone numbers. These blocks can contain millions of numbers. This way, Skype can offer virtual numbers in different countries and regions to its users.

They buy them, they have the money and infra structure to keep them on their servers and give them maintenance, money is power and they have the power to do what ever they want.

Only this one feels logical here. They buy bulk on telecom blocks. This is how this must be happening.
