I believe this is controlled by `org-babel-min-lines-for-block-output'. Help
on this variable says:

,----
| org-babel-min-lines-for-block-output is a variable defined in ‘ob-core.el’.
| Its value is 10
| 
| Documentation:
| The minimum number of lines for block output.
| If number of lines of output is equal to or exceeds this
| value, the output is placed in a #+begin_example...#+end_example
| block.  Otherwise the output is marked as literal by inserting
| colons at the starts of the lines.  This variable only takes
| effect if the :results output option is in effect.
