Yes, that means AWS generated your private key and theoreticaly they could keep it, but they promise that they don't and that's almost certainly true. Once you donwload the private key and click "Launch Instances" - the only way to log into your new virtual machine is using the private key you saved. AWS does not provide the equivalent option of "reset your password" for instances that were already created.
