That makes two of us

That makes two of us = the green stuff makes two of us?
I don't why the stuff is green? The food the man ate was green?

Context:
'He splattered,' my mohter said in her most matter-of-fact tone. She paused, then added, 'The stuff that came out of him was green. I have never forgotten it.'
That makes two of us. Mom.
