"However, can someone explain the source of 143 and 459 as meaning "I love you"?"

Not sure about the "143" but on a phone keypad, "I-L-Y" is "459"

143 represents letter count.

“I” - 1 letter

“Love” - 4 letters

“You” - 3 letters

459 on a telephone keypad is ILY.

AH! Makes sense. Should've looked at my phone first before posting, I guess. ;-)
