Are detached scans same as running the scan from the command line ?

No and I think they're not very well supported/recommended.

Because of their problems they got removed from the current 2.3.x
versions of the Nessus client, though the server code is still
present.

Check here for more info:

Maybe you can add to the KB that they're deprecated. The link to
http://www.nessus.org/doc/detached_scan.html on that page is no
longer valid, too.
