Example returns an Integer exception

[daxxog]

I ran this code:

    var VM = require('ethereumjs-vm');

    //create a new VM instance
    var vm = new VM();
    var code = '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';
    //code needs to be a buffer
    code = new Buffer(code, 'hex');

    vm.runCode({
      code: code,
      gasLimit: new Buffer('ffffffff', 'hex') 
    }, function(err, results) {
      console.log(typeof results.exception, results.exception, 'returned: ' + results.return.toString('hex'));
    });

and got this result:

number 1 returned: 7f726567697374657200000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000060003514156053576020355415603257005b335415603e5760003354555b6020353360006000a233602035556020353355005b60007f756e72656769737465720000000000000000000000000000000000000000000060003514156082575033545b1560995733335460006000a2600033545560003355005b60007f6b696c6c00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000600035141560cb575060455433145b1560d25733ff5b6000355460005260206000f3

why is results.exception === 1? shouldn't it be a boolean type? can someone please explain this example to me and how it works? I'm new to eth and want to use this VM as a simple state machine.
