It's not unusual - coming through DFW this week Customs was checking all passports in the Global Entry & Crew line, and it appears they were doing so in the regular lines, too. Same with Miami - just a quick glance. When I came through JFK in October, there was no passport check.

They do have the right to do the check, and generally it's not a big deal.
