Default Insta-rout?

Here's one I have never seen before.

I selected an SS infantry platoon in this first battle of the long campaign and fired with it at a scout squad of the Poles. The unit fired and caused no casualties. This unit, I believe, either had no suppression or 1 point. In any case it was low enough to fire (the first time to fire this turn and had not been rallied prior to firing) and IIRC it had 6 shots.

The scouts react fired back and caused a casuality. Suddenly my very experienced SS unit was mysteriously routed with 99 suppression!!! Was this some over-dramatic leader kill feature or something? I can't vouch for who was the leader before this, although I could get an earlier save and find out if it matters.

I tried attaching the save game file, but no searches turn up with it.
