Pilot said something like "hijacked the plane," but this call is ridiculous. The pilot doesn't know his own office number? And I am pretty sure the base knew the second things went fubar.
This 9-1-1 call was generated by the Mexican man who saw a military man in a parachute come down in his backyard. The homeowner saw that the man was in need of medical assistance and was calling an ambulance for him.
When the Operator was confused, the still-coherent pilot spoke up to make sure she was clear on what had happened and was sending an ambulance, obviously aware he was in bad shape.
The pilot did not generate the call. The Mexican man did.
Additionally, the pilot was certain his jet was going down or was about to, and wanted to alert them to this impending crisis.
