You probably shall set row.names=NULL parameter in read.csv as stated 
in help page

row.names a vector of row names. This can be a vector giving the 
actual row names, or a single number giving the column of the table 
which contains the row names, or character string giving the name of 
the table column containing the row names. 
If there is a header and the first row contains one fewer field than 
the number of columns, the first column in the input is used for the 
row names. Otherwise if row.names is missing, the rows are numbered. 
Using row.names = NULL forces row numbering.  

However you probably will always get some row numbering as it is an 
attribute of data.frame.
