Yes, but Paul was at the time, probably the second most educated man in the world (next to Gamaliel).

My take away from the soldiers reaction was that a Hebrew speaking in Greek was unusual.

Um, no. If you read the next verse, you see that it was a case of mistaken identity on the part of the Roman tribune, who had assumed Paul was an Egyptian.
