Brian gave a decent response, but because I'm drinking my morning coffee 
I feel the urge to add another reply for you (since it'll delay my 
departure for work).  A suppressed verification drop is a packet that 
would have dropped  with 'ip verify unicast source reachable-via 
[any|rx]', but didn't drop because you added options (which can be 
allow-default, allow-self-ping, and/or an ACL to punch some additional 
holes).
