As long as you have Voiceover set to start at the login in system preferences it will speak automatically durring that part of update processes. It did it for me for as long as I've had my Macbook, since 10.5.2. If you don't have it on, however, you can allways do command f5 to turn it on if it doesn't speak automatically.

Wonder if anyone has noticed this. After doing an update when it says the machine needs to be restarted after restart is clicked the login window comes up, voiceover reverts to default settings at this time and actually allows a user to find out the progress of the installation. This used to be silent and we never new what was happening. Just one more request that Apple has fixed. Pretty awesome.
