Either 2666 or 2722.

Explanation:

Let's do this step by step:

Rounded to the nearest thousand, the number rounds to 3000.

This means that we're working with a number that is between 2500 and 3449.

Rounded to the nearest hundred, the number is 2700.

This means that number is between 2650 and 2749.

Three of my digits are the same. What number am I?

I see two possibilities here: 2666 and 2722. Both round to 3000 at the nearest thousands, 2700 to the nearest hundreds, and have 3 digits that are the same.
