So I wouldn't worry about the gap, it's big, but with the strong WM and fast processing speed, I don't think it's going to be an issue. I would think of him as '99%' percent for school purposes, and hold an open mind that when it comes to problem solving, he may grow up to be even more unusual than that. School is all about Verbal Comprehension, but with his strong Verbal and unusually strong WM and Processing, I think he'd fit in nicely with any other bunch of kids with a similar Full Scale IQ.
But yup, I'd wonder about his low vocabulary score. Is his hearing impaired? I'd also check to see if he has CAPD - a problem is processing heard material. Is he supershy? Shyness can depress a Verbal score. Was he uncomfortable with the tester? Some kids who are strong at reading other people adjust their performance to fit in better without even realizing it.
I think giftedness is about 'unusualness.' You might live in a superzip neighborhood where there are plenty of kids just like him, or close enough. If you don't, it wouldn't be a suprise for him to need accommodation. What sort of accommodation you can get varies from location to location. Definitely try to do some gifted summer programs. When he talks to you at home, do his stories hold together? Can he retell plotlines from favorite books?
I'm guessing you got the test for a reason. Do these answers answer those original questions?
