When you start up in single-user mode, you are root.

However, you are correct, that is the prompt shown for single-user mode as
of 10.2 Jaguar. Single-user mode uses sh version 2.05a, hence that prompt.

The default shell in Terminal is tcsh, with a prompt indicating your
computer's network name and the current path. No difference whether or not
you are logged in as root.
