If the page is partially in color, any color content will be displayed in 150 PPI and B&W content in 300 PPI. If you have a colored background and B&W text on it, the text should be in 300 DPI as well, but I didn't have a chance to actually test it, so don't quote me on that.
Physics. It uses a 300 dpi screen. The colour is 150 dpi at best. You can't ever have true B&W 300 dpi, that's gone because of the filter, which is passive. Mono will look better than 150 dpi and certain mono content will be closer to 300 dpi appearance.

Marketing hyperbole that would be quickly squashed if a TV or laptop maker tried claiming the native LCD panel resolution is the mono resolution.
