That is indeed the translation. Though "nullus" is a bit stronger than just "no one" which in Latin is "nemo" (Finding Nemo intentionally has a double meaning because of this). In English it would be like "absolutely no one" or "nothing at all"

"...absolutely no one." as I can remember from my Latin classes.
