It should have worked in fact, after having problem to contact a mirror (timeout) it should try another one provided another one is defined, but urpmi will try this for each file, it is not a true dynamic mirror change as it doesn't take care of error code returned by network layer. Can you try to reproduce it and send me a urpmi bug report using --bug dir please ? Fran�ois.
