according to wikipedia.com

Both Kenshin's name and his semi-nonsensical exclamation "oro" are tributes to Watsuki's favorite comedian, Ken Shimura. As used by Shimura and Watsuki, "oro" expresses surprise or dismay, based on the similar exclamation "ara" (generally considered feminine). As proper Japanese vocabulary, "oro" only exists as a word for lochia. It seems in the English version that "oro" has been translated into "huh?" in the English anime dub (Although in episode 62 of the dub, Kaoru notices that Kenshin is saying "oro" rather than "huh?") . However, "oro" is kept intact in the English manga.

consult the wikipedia for more trivia and info. whee
