Yes, that's it.  It disables the _service_ in this run level by
stopping it.  When you move from runlevel to runlevel, anything labeled
S## is started, and anything labeled K## is stopped.  That's what
runlevels are for.

Anything not labeled S... or K... does nothing.

If you rename S02udev to K02udev in rc2.d then you are telling the
system to stop udev in runlevel 2.  So now your system no longer has
udev running.

Since udev is expected to be running, that is a problem.
