Those books are downloaded to that Kindle. The Kindle for iphone was created to allow me to read on the iphone the same Kindle-formatted books I am reading on the Kindle, to the point where each device reads where I have stopped on the other. If you don't own a Kindle, why would you even bother with the iphone/Kindle app?
With the new Kindle iPhone app, you don't have to own a Kindle. You can register your iPhone with your Amazon account and buy Kindle books using your iPhone. No Kindle necessary.

ETA: As I see many people have already pointed out. Sorry, missed the new page of replies.
