If you e-filed your return, it will be rejected. One of the first checks of the e-file system is to compare the social security number with the exact name on record with the Social Security Administration. Unless the incorrect number you used was an actual social security number and they have the same exact name, then the return will not go through.
TurboTax will send you an e-mail (and a text, if you opted for such) to notify you that the return was rejected. You will then log back in and click on Fix. Next, you will go to the Personal Info section and click Edit next to your name to correct your social security number. You can then click File and re-submit your return for e-filing.
Assuming there are no other problems, it should be accepted once the proper social security number matching your name is submitted.
