Odd.

The last time there was major instability due to multiple backbones 
upgrading was ... oh crap. So I'm going to get a major PSIRT "upgrade now 
or die" notice while I'm at NANOG. Good thing Monday evening is open...

The Verio part seems to be an observational anormaly caused by
the frame of reference of the observer.
