The only thing that surprised me is that it was not also given to Terry Sejnowski. Terry has as much merit as Hinton in the invention of the Boltzman Machine (which is the main reason for the award to Hinton). In fact, they both co-authored papers in 1985 and 1986 describing the learning algorithm in the Boltzman Machine. In addition, Sejnowski did his Ph.D. thesis with Hopfield, the other awardee. In my opinion it is unfair to have forgotten Sejnowski.
