In my case, I needed to use 'last' to make it work due I had other rules that I wanted to be applied:

location ~ /[0-9]+ {

Reference: http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpRewriteModule#rewrite

If the replacement string begins with http:// then the client will be redirected, and any further >rewrite directives are terminated.

        rewrite "/([0-9]+)" /v.php?id=$1 break;
}
