A bit lucky doesn't describe it.

If the numbers I've been playing with are right, it's about a 6% chance of making that roll.

Which is a 0.0013% chance of getting 4 in row.
Possible, technically.

Which is why I suspect only a single roll is made for the patrollers, which is then compared against a roll for each stealthy commander. Since one really good patrol roll could beat all the stealth rolls, it would be much more possible.
Simulating that comes out to around 0.3% for catching all four.
