• It's a sort page, so temporarily allocated for a sort operation, probably an index rebuild, and deallocated afterwards. Hence by the time CheckDB ran, the page had long since been deallocated. Deallocated pages can't be checked with checkDB as they are not part of the consistent database structure.
