This current X mapping is defined by:

  key <NMLK> { [ Num_Lock, Pointer_EnableKeys ] };

I think I now understand what's happening; Internally the ThinkPad controller is converting Shift+ScrLock to NumLock, but of course the Shift is still getting passed through to X, so this is what eventually gets us the:

  Shift+NumLock

key-event, when it shouldn't be. Mmmm.
