He read Luke's thoughts and feelings. It was more like a sensing. As opposed to reaching into someone's mind and extracting the information you need. 'We don't need no droid, I can just read her mind!' In the end he couldn't because she's strong with the Force but the confidence that he could get something as detailed as a map she saw briefly is unlike anything Anakin ever did.
