The "root" in "-uroot" means the root user on mysql; not the system root
user. "password" in "-ppassword" is the password for the mysql root user
on mysql. 

"root" is obviously unchanged; what changes is the password. The
password would be set up at install time. On debian, the installer asks
to set up the root user's password while installing the "mysql-server"
package. This may be different for other distros / OSes. You are
expected to use that password here.
