"What's your 20?" I have heard a lot of such expressions in English-language films, like "What's your twenty?" and "ten-four", et cetera. How many of those number-codes are there, and what do they mean?

Phrases like that are usually based on the radio codes used by police officers in the US. The actual numbers used differ from one police department to another, but "20" is generally understood to refer to location, so "What's your 20?" simply means "Where are you?"
