It should (and is) 20str = 1 Shield Block value.

(assumed level 70)
Strength (str):
1 str = 2 attack power (AP)
20 str = 1 block value
Vitality increases strength by 10%

Shield Block value:
1 shield block value = +1 damage absorbed on a block, and +1 damage on a shield slam (aggro increase of <= 1/6 TPS)

The prot talent Shield Mastery seems to be working, and so is the +10% strength talent.

Look here http://www.wowwiki.com/Block_value , here it is said that "The block value is increased by one for two points of strength."

You do realise that's from Wrath right.
