That is my understanding of it, yes. What he did is certainly not the preferred method of raising, and if he did it repeatedly, he would probably be asked to start stating his raise amounts. But it's not a string bet.
And I agree with your response to Robbie... Once you state that you are raising AND declare the amount of your bet (or the raise, of course), then you may make as many motions as you like. But you most definitely can't say "Raise," and then make a min raise, look around the table, throw a few more chips in, look around the table, throw a few more chips in, watch the player behind you fold, throw a few more chips in, watch the guy behind him fold, throw a few more in, watch the guy behind him "call" and then and only then stop string betting.
State the amount or move your chips into the pot in one motion. Simple as that.
