If this flight doesn’t go well, SpaceX has a “large pipeline of V3 ships and boosters in the factory,” Musk wrote on X.

Is what I am referring to mostly.

And a capital V is a bit different from using v3 for example.

I am all for calling out dog whistles but I cannot hear or see that one.

Its probably something Musk finds "funny".

The V has stood for version for about two centuries

Legitimately is funny if people are so paranoid that they start to believe it. Sad bit is that musk gives good reasons to believe bad things about them.
