Google Maps Android V2 debug and release key

I recently got the release key from Google Maps Android V2; So before exporting the signing APK from eclipse; I updated the manifest, changing the debug API key from GMaps to the Release API keys.

Hours later I needed to debug something, so I ran the app on debug but I didn't change the Manifest API key back to the debug one. As far as I am concerned, the app is signed with the debug key machine, but it contains the release key from GMaps API. As far as I know, it was supposed NOT TO WORK. The GMaps DID work. So now I'm confused. Could you explain please

In the new API (Version 2) you can have the same key for multiple sha-1 fingerprints.

Can it be that you have configured in your APIs Console, the API key with both your debug and release keystore fingerprint like so:
