From Uber's response:

The dynamic pricing applied to trips booked via Uber is determined by the existing demand for rides and the supply of drivers who can respond to it.

They requested the first ride which means demand went up and available drivers went down, which in turn affected the price of the second ride.

Oh for some reason I was assuming they cancelled the first one.

Who knows. Their article is really light on details. Even if they did I'd assume Uber would recognize increased activity in that area.
