That’s definitely the worst keypad wear I’ve ever seen :D
They actually make versions these days where a display randomises the numbers, so that it doesn’t form a discernible wear pattern.
Of course, you do have to wonder if this is actually a thing to be worried about, or rather something we all ‘know’ from spy movies. Usually the easiest way to bypass these is to just walk in after someone…

I used to geocache a LOT years ago, don't do as much now. But it was crazy how much people would ignore whatever weird thing you were doing if you had a high-vis vest, clipboard, and hardhat. I used to joke you could damn-near walk in anywhere and nobody would blink.
I learned that while buying tobacco products while underage.
If you walk in and act like you do this everyday you're less likely to get carded.
Act like you belong
It’s silly but it’s true. Especially if you’ve got a package, a ladder, etc. Nobody’s going to hassle a dude carrying a ladder because he’s clearly Doing Something Important.
When it’s a regular old apartment building you don’t even need that. You can just wait until someone walks in and just follow them through. Happens all the time. Which is why I make sure to always pull security doors closed behind me. I’d rather not be the cause of a break-in or worse.
