No, that's backwards (I know it gets confusing). Think of a bicycle derailleur -- large sprocket on the front and small sprocket on the back make the rear wheel spin faster for a given pedal speed.
Basically it's a ratio of the pulley diameters. An alternator spins much faster than crankshaft speed, and look how small its pulley is.
