You have activated "Find My Mac." What you see is the Safari-only "Guest User" login, which is not really a login at all but a pointer into the recovery partition. There is no password, as it would defeat the purpose. The Guest User is a trap for thieves to fool them into connecting the stolen computer to a network so you can locate it, and then fast-rope through the window from a black helicopter to recover your property.
