And the answer is: I haven't.
I might know two of these.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8. 64
9. 65
10.
11.
12.
13.
14.
15.
I'll guess 54 for all the East-West ones and 31 for all the North-South ones, unless wrong guesses cost points, in which case I won't guess on any of the others.

Let’s see how well you’ve paid attention to your road atlas. Below is a list of pairs of major U.S. cities. For each pair, you must give the interstate number that directly connects them.
1. Philadelphia PA to Jacksonville FL - I-95 (As you might have guessed, I was careful not to use a city north of Philadelphia cuz I didn't want anybody pointing out to me the I-95 gap in New Jersey.)
2. Los Angeles CA to Seattle WA - I-5
3. Kansas City MO to Fargo ND - I-29
4. Miami FL to Knoxville TN - I-75
5. Phoenix AZ to New Orleans LA - I-10
6. Syracuse NY to Roanoke VA - I-81
7. Baltimore MD to Denver CO - I-70
8. St. Louis MO to Richmond VA - I-64
9. Chicago IL to Jackson MS - I-55
10. Cleveland OH to Cincinnati OH - I-71
11. Detroit MI to Billings MT - I-94 (I-90 does go through Billings, but does not go through Detroit. I-90 goes through Toledo OH. And I'll talk about that later.)
12. Dallas TX to Atlanta GA - I-20
13. Minneapolis MN to Austin TX - I-35
14. Oklahoma City OK to Raleigh-Durham NC - I-40
15. Columbia SC to Akron OH - I-77
BONUS
Toledo OH to Gary IN - I-80 and I-90 (For some odd reason, the entire length of I-80 in Indiana is multiplexed with one other interstate. From Gary until Lansing IL, I-80 is multiplexed with I-94.)
