It was not actually him but the other students who started chanting that:

His "foreign" origins were highlighted by opponents of the student movement, leading to students taking up the chant, "Nous sommes tous les juifs allemands" ("We are all German Jews").
(sorry, I spent a few minutes having trouble phrasing that in English, so I eventually decided it would be easier for everyone to copy that from there!)
