Using Reduce will tell you much more about possible solutions (probably
everything):
Reduce[{x, y, z} == Matrix[{0, 0, 1}, \[Theta]] . {x, y, z}, \[Theta]]
(C[1] \[Element] Integers && (\[Theta] == 2*Pi*C[1] || (x == 0 && y ==
0 && \[Theta] == Pi + 2*Pi*C[1]))) || ((-Pi + \[Theta])/(2*Pi)
\[NotElement] Integers && x == 0 && y == 0)
Your equation to be solved for \[Theta] obviously is looking for
Eigenvalues == 1 of the Matrix with Alpha = 0 and Beta = 0.
This can be accomplished more directly in the follwing way
ev = Eigenvalues[Matrix[{0, 0, 1}, \[Theta]]]
{1, Cos[\[Theta]] - I*Sin[\[Theta]], Cos[\[Theta]] +
I*Sin[\[Theta]]}
Reduce[ev[[1]] == 1, \[Theta]]
True
Reduce[ev[[2]] == 1, \[Theta]]
C[1] \[Element] Integers && \[Theta] == 2*Pi*C[1]
Reduce[ev[[3]] == 1, \[Theta]]
C[1] \[Element] Integers && \[Theta] == 2*Pi*C[1]
PS: I don't see the 5 or 6 solutions you mentioned, but only 3.

Wolfgang
