Zenmap automatically combines the results of all your scans in a process
we call "scan aggregation." Please see the following sections of the
user's guide:

http://nmap.org/book/zenmap-scanning.html#aggregation
http://nmap.org/book/zenmap-results.html#zenmap-tab-nmap-output

At the top of the "Nmap Output" tab there is a box that shows the
command used (next to the "Details" button). You can click on the box
and you will get a list of all the scans that are aggregated in that
window. You can select one to see its output.

Another way to see the output of a selected scan is to go to the "Scans"
tab and double-click the scan whose output you want to see.

I don't claim that this is the best user interface solution. Scan
aggregation is a brand-new feature. Certainly suggestions are welcome as
to how better to communicate that there may be several scans run in a
window and their results are combined together as if you had done one
big scan.
