Well, it's simply that you address the person directly rather than just saying Thanks. In most cases it is clear that who you are talking to though. When you give a speech and you want to address a person/people in particular you might say Many thanks to you, my dear friend Jonathan. Also, in a foreword of a book you can express special thanks to somebody in particular.
