The option shows up only after you have uploaded at least two images in Appeaarance > Header.

Appearance > Header

You can upload a custom header image to be shown at the top of your site instead of the default one. On the next screen you will be able to crop the image.
Images of exactly 885 × 252 pixels will be used as-is.

Uploaded Images
You can choose one of your previously uploaded headers, or show a random one.
__Random: Show a different image on each page.

Fresh & Clean and Reddle are themes that also have this feature as well.

I thought I read somewhere (maybe on Panos's site?) that this random header feature was a not-widely-known feature of several themes now. that's when I tried to do it on mine and couldn't figure it out. oh well!

Some will allow you to set a featured image on pages and posts that will be used as the header on those pages and single-post pages, but the main site page, archives, categories and tags pages will all show the header set at appearance > header.

Even the Pilcro demo doesn't state (anywhere that I can see) that this is possible. I have a custom header (Bueno) but when I tried to see if I could upload other custom headers it seemed that the current one would "disappear" which would be a slight hassle to get back...

I use this with Pilcro theme.
