There is a thread that I cannot find where people report these extra-early UDUs. I think it happens when the plane is oversold in economy and has space in front. Sounds like this could be your situation.

I do not think you will have any problem. If asked, just explain that you only requested UDU. Supported upgrades have to be supported at the time of request, and you did not request a supported upgrade.
