I do not believe it.?? If a single threaded app uses only 1 CPU on an SMP box, how can it use 10 on a cluster?

Has anyone tried this package? 
It is a supercomputing cluster package that claims to: 
"Cluster up to thousands of nodes with no modifications required on your existing applications"?? - TurboLinux 
Am I to believe that a single threaded app with no clutering API will run better and faster on this cluster??? If not, 
What is the correct quote? 
Thanks, 
Chris
