Germany (represented by Hitler himsefl) wanted to deport the Danish Jews to extermination camps elsewhere in Europe. This was prevented (except for the very old or ill) by the escape of the Jews to neutral Sweden.

On an individual level it wasn't all Germans to supported the official deportation plans, though. The escape was made possible first of all because a German officer, Duckwitz, told Danish (and Swedish) politicians about it, and when the actual escape took place in small boats across the Øresund strait there are several reported cases where German patrols were 'looking the other way' rather than trying to prevent it.
