I'll play devil's advocate for a minute: yeah, it actually does, as true belief in a claim eliminates the possibility that the claimant is posing it sarcastically, or lying. Granted, it's not a huge increase in likelihood, but at least you've eliminated two possibilities where the claim would be false by definition.
