How did the election of marius as consul reflect a change in romans government

The six elections to the consulship of Gaius Marius did not reflect a change in Rome's government. After having been elected as consul for the year 107 BC in 108 BC, Marius was elected consuls five consecutive times (105-100 BC) and was consul for the years 104-100 BC. This was highly unusual and addition to this, technically, unconstitutional. A law passed in 152 BC forbade re-election to the consulship for 10 years. Another very unusual fact was that in 105 BC he was elected in absentia, while he was fighting a war in Africa. This was because there was a military emergency (the Cambrian War (112-101 BC) Roman territories were being invaded by two migrating Germanic peoples, the Teutons and the Cambric. They appeared in Austria and then moved around Gaul and northern Hispania.
