This is what SpaceWeather dot com had to say about it:
On Nov 6th at 21:32 UT, asteroid 2009 VA flew just 14,000 km above the planet's surface. That's well inside the "Clarke Belt" of geosynchronous satellites. If it had hit the six meter wide space rock would have disintegrated in the atmosphere as a spectacular fireball causing no significant damage on the ground. 2009 VA was discoved just fifteen hours before its closest approach.
