Default Sign off with 73 followed by 99

Heard this on the Ham Bands
I know what 73 means (Best Regards)
But what's with 99 ??
CB 10-99 ??



I think it comes from the same place that 73 comes from, an old
telegraph code (Philips telegraph code?). The code is a two digit
number. Don't know what it means though.
