There must be something wrong with your copy of the data set.
Here it looks different:

v.info elev_contour_3m | grep dblinks
 |   Number of dblinks:      1                                                |

v.db.select elev_contour_3m | head -5
cat|level
1|58
2|61
3|64
4|67

Did you probably delete the map attribute table?

Best,
Markus
