A phone verification is a block that a seller can set, I believe it is actually 'block buyers with less than 5 feedback who are not phone verified'.

This means, if you have that block set, the buyer will get a message to say they cannot purchase from you until ebay verify them by phone. They then need to call a number and get a pin, which they need to enter.

You may not actually have ever been phone verified, but your feedback level puts you way outside needing to do this.
