I noticed the exact same behavior on one of my machines.  After a number
of updates apt was able to see the new version of ssh and install it.

Possible explanations:

1.  One of the servers in the round robin dns for http.us.debian.org is
not being updated, and has a different version of ssh in its archive.

2.  Someone has placed a transparent proxy upstream from your machine and
is caching (or poisoning) the debian archive.

No other explanations come to mind at this point.
