Jared,
You run into very well documented feature. Answer to your question is a last
sentence of the paragraph.

Complete refreshes of a single materialized view internally use the
TRUNCATEfeature to increase speed and reduce rollback segment
requirements. However,
until the materialized view refresh is complete, users may temporarily see
no data in the materialized view. Refreshes of multiple materialized views
(for example, refresh groups) do not use the TRUNCATE feature.
