'Unanimous Consent' is NOT quite the same thing as 100 Senators voting for the same thing. It's more like asking whether anyone objects and when no one does, it passes by 'unanimous consent'. This way there is no record of how any one particular Senator voted, since no voting actually took place.

That being said, it was still a big surprise.
