Yes, that's SSL termination. Generally this happens at the CDN, load balancer or proxy (e.g. nginx used as a cache) layer and is pretty common since the fleet of servers handling the request after being routed are in a private network. With CF, the request from CF to the origin is over a public network and it will depend on how the user has configured their CF setup as to whether or not that hand-off is then encrypted. If they are doing SSL termination in CF, then it won't be encrypted from CF to the origin server.
