The FBI is not a secret service, neither is the Japanese PSB or the NPA Zero Division that Amuro works for. They are police agencies. We only have the CIA and MI6 on the intelligence agency side.
What has MI6 to do with undercover agents? They don't have any as far as we know.

That's certainly what they'd want us to think, wouldn't it?

@Nanaca Exactly my thoughts. 
Who even abbreviates "territory" to "ter"? Never have I heard such a thing, and I had to learn a lot of synonyms for territory-habitat-domain-etc. just to describe an animal's homestead in my workplace. It makes absolutely no sense. Unless it's some code word, but then again, how could Conan even know?! The NATO alphabet doesn't use it either, it's either Tango for the "t" or Vic-tor where the last syllable sounds kinda-maybe-plausibly-ish like it (with a wrong vowel, that is ...).

It is slightly more logical in Japanese, though without the raws, I don't know if Aoyama did it properly, and remains rather convoluted. The full Kanji rendering of "domain" would be "領域" which is synonymous with "territory." The full and proper Kanji rendering of "territory" is "領土" which, as you can see, is made up of two Kanji characters. However, the first character "領" can also mean "territory" by itself, is the common Kanji character of both words, and could be used as an abbreviation for "territory." Following this trend, shorten "teritori" (romaji rendering of the katakana equivalent of "territory") by half to get "teri." It still leaves a dangling "i" and, as stated, remains the sort of connection a schizo would come up with, but it makes more sense than just calling "ter" an abbreviation.

Imagine how quickly so many things would be resolved if all our heroes just communicated with each other instead of sneaking around behind each others' backs 
But then, that wouldn't be very interesting storytelling!
It feels like years ago that Sera invited Conan to the hotel to bare all though... guess that's off the table now.
