The zero is the ASCII NUL character, which has been used as the "end of string" marker since the beginning of time (which we all know was at midnight GMT on December 31st 1969). This convention is so prevalent that every language encoding known to man avoids the use of this byte for compatibility with C code that expects to read it as the end of the string. Property names should be ASCII strings, by convention at least if not by force. ASCII strings don't contain nuls.
