I think unusual things have happened (things with a low probability that nevertheless occurred; things about which it might not be appropriate to say they actually had a 100% chance of occurring all along if only we knew enough). So unusual things have occurred, but nothing strange.
This is a bit late, but this comment has a bit of coverage thanks to Google.
The thing about probability of events, is that it is intrinsically linked to the observer. There’s no probability in the physical phenomena itself (I’m not quite advanced in my studies of quantum mechanics as of yet, to comment on the uncertainty principle, but that again is related to the observer).
Again, this idea has been stated several times in the sequences.
That’s what it’s meant by unusual thing.
