there’s a double ended arrow between the 0 and the 00 in the board depiction. What does this mean, and what are the odds?

Thats for when you play the line, the numbers in between those points. Its payoff is 17-1
that spot is not on a casino roulette board. That is just a graphic for Wikipedia. I does mean a split however for both 0 and 00.
It means that you can split the two numbers (which pays 17 to 1). The arrows on that model aren’t really there on a roulette table, but are shown in the model to show street (ie. one of the lines of 3 numbers) and column (one of the three rows of 12 numbers) bets. The 0 and 00 dont fit into the 12 by 3 grid with the other numbers, so they are in a line of 2 numbers instead of 3 numbers. Since there is no 3rd number in that row, you cannot place a street bet (covering all 3 numbers in the row), but are left betting on only two numbers, which makes it a split bet instead of a street bet. The drawing is just illustrating that you can split the numbers 0 and 00.
