Can someone not bad at math help me?

Item X has a drop rate of 1/1000. I get the drop on kill #500.
Item Y has a drop rate of 1/1000. I get the drop on kill #100.

How would I calculate the percent chance of this happening?

I been thinking about drop chances too.

Thinking of a theoretical difference between something being 1/1k and 2/2k.

While technically both are 1/1k the 2/2k would have longer dry streaks due to the increase in possible other outcomes right?
Accidently surged up a dinosaurs ass, became stuck then activated double surge and burst out its chest alien-style!
Got his dragon mattocks then crashed the clan citadel into Anachronia wiping out the dinosaurs.
