Skin o' My Teeth - what is 912 for?

[Necrometer]

In Kalmah's cover of the Megadeth track "Skin o' My Teeth" they replace "911" with "912" in the delivery of the lyrics that originally read like this:

I need a ride to the morgue
That's what 911 is for
So, tag my toe and don't forget
To close the drawer

Anyone here know why this replacement might be made? Do Finns actually dial 912 for emergencies over there? Just curious...

Edit: My mistake, it's spoken "112" in the cover, and the explanation is a few posts below.

Ive never noticed that. That is kinda weird.

112 is the finnish emergencies number. and it's in the song not 912-

Ah, thanks very much! It was easy to miss that first digit for some reason, but the "2" was clear to me.

There was some funny reason for this, but unfortunately I've forgotten it lol. Try searching older post, it had something to do with some movie or tv serie or something..
