Q: If someone adds the unknown call code, will the message go through to someone who has blocked the caller?

I'm concerned as to whether or not this affects anything. I've heard that my blocked numbers can still call me if they use their unknown call code.

iPhone 5, iOS 7.0.6

    Yep. Any calls coming to you listed as "Unknown", will come through. There's no way for you to block these directly on your phone, but some carriers will, so contact yours. That would be the only way to block these calls.
