No.  I'm saying everyone on the planet will use the same 3 addresses for
the same 3 services.

My customers will use the same IP address as your customers.   If you dial
into any isp configured for this and send packets destined for 
223.255.255.1 you will get the "closest, best" DNS server for dialup
customers.
