Twitter already offers a blue tick for verified accounts as a way of differentiation and may now be planning to add another label, which will indicate that a phone number associated with an account is also verified. Take a look at the details.
Twitter to introduce 'official' label for some verified accounts
As reverse engineer Jane Manchun Wong suggested, Twitter will add a "verified phone number" label to accounts, if those account owners have verified their numbers. This will be a small grayscale label placed above the "Followers" and "Following" options.

Twitter encourages people to link their phone numbers and email IDs to give an account more authenticity. Since automated accounts also exist, it also introduced a label for it, so that there is no confusion and people can identify the good bots. Also, account recovery is much easier if you forget your password or if someone tries to access it without your knowledge.
