Based on my knowledge of the NPA/NXX space, I wouldn't expect that
either

a) A given batch of random DNs would have either or both NPA/NXX
components evenly distributed over all the valid NPA/NXXs in the NANPA,
or

b) that the assigned NPA/NXXs in the NANPA are themselves evenly
distributed over all the valid NPA/NXXs.

Could you clarify the background that brings you to that assumption?

Do you have empirical data?
