Random Forest Binary classification - Predict_Proba values

Hi,

I am doing a binary classification using Random Forest. My Training dataset has 5 attributes and Feature importance for the data set is as below: A - 28%, B, 27%, C - 17%, D - 17%, E - 11%

My Testing dataset set has 5 rows and values for columns A,B,D and E are constant for each row. The only value I am changing is for Column C. I am increasing the value of Column C by 5% with each row. Although my model is predicting all 5 rows in the correct binary class the probabilities for the prediction seem to be all over the place. I thought the values would constantly increase from 87%

rf.predict_proba(X_test)

array([[ 0.12502395,  0.87497605],
 [ 0.25752719,  0.74247281],
 [ 0.36002373,  0.63997627],
 [ 0.20251886,  0.79748114],
 [ 0.37752784,  0.62247216],
 [ 0.4625238 ,  0.5374762 ],
 [ 0.36502739,  0.63497261]])

Am I doing something wrong?? Thanks in advance!
