Since he asserted that no one called the police for Kitty Genovese while she was being attacked he had a duty to give people a number to call if they heard someone being attacked.
Back then, 1964, there was no 911. You called the operator, yes there were local human operators back then, or called the local precinct or the emergency number 440-1234.
The press on the case, led by Gansberg, did get the 911 system working in NYC.
Now that your homework was answered get extra points with the instructor by pointing out that a reconstruction of what happened showed two things, people did call the police and almost no one would have been able to hear her calls for help do to the layout of the lot she was attacked in and the building overlooking the lot.
Like yu I wil nto give you a link since you, wnating a homeprk anser, was not courteous enough to do so.
You forgot to link the article, so we can't determine why it includes anything. That said, the police department's phone number is already public information and widely available.

Since the newyork city didn't have 911 emergency services in 1964. He provided the information just to make people aware about the right number & to call the police if they heard or saw anyone asking or seeking for help.
