startx knows nothing about runlevels, it could not care less, that is why the system _is_ still at runlevel 3. Changing the runlevel starts and stops services but manually starting services does not change the runlevel.

You should really do some reading on runlevels and init.

Startx is not even a regular service. It is only a hack to start X.
