Why don't we use THE more?

People from out of (the) town always comment on how we call our freeways The 5, The 55 and The 405.

I was watching The Good Shepherd today and I liked this quote from it:

Someone asked me why when we talk about CIA, we dont say "the CIA" , and I told him, "You don't say 'the' when talking about God."
