Look it up on iFixit, he dissects a Smart Cover to see how it works. The iPad has magnets built into it for just this exact purpose.
Magnets are only really issue when it comes to spinning HDD drives, because it can and will knock the needle or platter out of alignment which is obviously bad. I don't believe SSD's are effected at all, which is what is technically in the iPad.
To actually pull the heads or platters out of alignment would take a magnet on the order of the one used in Breaking Bad to erase Walt's computers.
