I've found that's true particularly with fast encodes, but not necessarily with a slower encode speed (high quality setting). From what I've read in the past, ffmpeg and encoders have developed enough that multithreading doesn't make a significant impact on quality anymore. This is, of course, from the ffmpeg command line interface rather than blender's GUI. I know of no such options within blender, so it's kind of moot anyway. If you want a high quality file, you'd encode slowly, regardless of the number of threads.
