To be fair to Mike, he NEVER gave any nitty gritty details about Zodiac's facial features. All he said he saw was that Zodiac had a large face, had no specs on, and was clean-shaven.

I still find it highly odd for Zodiac to be walking back to his car looking at the floor walking at a casual pace. Then again, I suppose Zodiac and his 'hobbies' were anything but normal. Myself, having never pulled into a car park/parking lot, exited my vehicle, and opened fire at the occupants of a second vehicle parked there, I can only speak in the hypothetical here but, I think if I had just emptied my pistol into two people in a public car park next to a fairly well used road, I would be doing anything but looking down and walking casually back to my car. I'd imagine adrenaline would kick in, your sense's heightened and instinctively want to observe my surroundings to ensure nobody was approaching the area having heard the many shots I had just fired.

There could be another explanation. If you have ever been in an accident or had some traumatic thing happen to you, your recollection of the event seems to be in slow motion. There is no doubt that getting shot multiple times is a traumatic event. Maybe Mike was recalling in slow motion and that was not really the case. Just a thought.
