asterisk users - Dec 2004 - gap in priorities - what happens

When I first saw the priority numbers in extensions.conf, I thought BASIC,
if a number is missing, * will fall thru to the next number.  I learned that
this is not so, if you have nothing between 1 and 3, you don't ever get to
3.

But I'm wondering what does happen?  Hangup and wait for next offhook?
Undefined?

Timeout is called.
Ie if exists the exten "t", after the timeout (default 5 secs, if
I remember correctly) will be executed, otherwise hangup
