I saw an interview w/ them years ago on TV and someone asked that question. They said it does have a meaning but they will never reveal it.

Originally, the band's official name was "Blink", however, the numerical three digit suffix was appended early in their career following an objection from a Irish band with the same name.
Although there are countless rumours of what the 182 stands for, ranging from the number of times certain words are said in movies to numbers that relate to where they live to the number of times that they have performed various sexual acts, the truth is that it is really just a number that they choose pretty much at random and thought sounded good.

The band has cited a variety of reasons for choosing 182 - the number is the amount of times Tony Montana utters the word "****" in Scarface, the 1985 Timothy Hutton film, Turk 182!, the band's ideal weight and the amount of miles Hoppus had to drive to visit his girlfriend. The band has admitted that they like to invent reasons in interviews, and the numbers were actually picked at random.

I thought it was the total of all their ages added up when the band formed..
