The portion of Ohio's State Route 8 from where it meets Interstate 77 to where it meets Interstate 271 is up to Interstate standards and could be a three digit interstate.
All of Ohio's State Route 11 is up to Interstate standards but it's directly in-between Interstates 77 and 79 so there's currently no good two digit Interstate numbers to use for it.

Almost, but not quite. There is a rest stop in Ashtabula County where northbound lanes have to cross the southbound lanes, at grade, to reach the rest stop as it is only on the westside of SR-11.
The fact that there is a highway that's up to Interstate standards that goes northeast from Little Rock for so many miles makes me wonder if it was going to be either part of Interstate 30 or a different Interstate completely.
Iowa has the Interstate 380 which links Interstate 80 to US 20 which the latter is up to Interstate standards for most of of the state (longer than the the Interstate 380 highway that links it to the Interstate 80).

Arkansas is upgrading US-67 to interstate standards from Little Rock to the Missouri state line, and the corridor is slated to become a southern extension of Interstate 57.
The bigger issue is Missouri getting on the same page and upgrading their part of US-67 and US-60 to interstate standards.
When you have these projects in multiple states that have varying funding sources and priorities, it's very hard to get them complete. Just look at I-69, Indiana is going all out to get their section completed, while other states are like whatever, we'll get to it when we get to it.

I think the other states are waiting for Indiana to be done first, so there's not a Interstate 73 & 74 in North Carolina situation with Interstate 69.
Washington DC is the biggest city without an Interstate passing through the city.
I-66 and I-95 were supposed to go through, but neighborhood opposition killed them. You can see little pieces of what was supposed to be a larger system. For instance, the E Street Freeway branching off the end of I-66 near the Kennedy Center was supposed to be the continuation of I-66, I think. Likewise, I-395 was originally going to be I-95, and the tunnel under the Mall near the Capitol was supposed to be the continuation of that road heading northward.
Interstate 66 is the only two digit Interstate that goes into DC at all (except it ends in DC instead of coming out the other end).
