I think they saw how easily a few hundred Trump cultists were able to break windows, smash doors and occupy the Capitol building. I think this terrified Congress on both sides of the aisle. I think they're scared.
Notice how Republican leaders aren't calling for the removal of any troops. Notice how Republican leaders are still sucking on the Trump teet despite the fact he's got less than 50% of the minority party's base of support. What he does have, however, is the support of the minority's most militant, obsessed and focused supporters, even if it's a mere fraction.
McConnell impeachment vote and subsequent floor speech should tell you everything you need to know.
