'virgin birth?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to natural events as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'dodgy claim re' is the wordplay.
'dodgy' indicates an anagram (a dodgy or wrong order of the letters).
'claim'+'re'='claimre'
'claimre' is an anagram of 'MIRACLE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for miracle that I've seen before include "astonishing feat" , "Amazing event" , "Marvel" , "Remarkable and welcome event" , "Welcome event that's not explained by natural law" .)
