For all we know they have some other sense for locating nuclear material. It's a giant monster movie, virtually anything goes when it comes to the monster's capabilities, hence Godzilla's atomic heat ray, which isn't exactly biologically plausible, but is still awesome. |
But even so a nuke isn't actually nuclear until it has a reaction. It's well established in the movie that they monsters feed off radiation. The bomb had no radiation. It would only have ratiation after it exploded. The MUTO also had no idea it was going to detonate otherwise it wouldn't have put the bomb into it's nest. It's a giant plot hole. Well one of many but the others are easier to overlook.
