I mean like does this mean that terrorists r now so powerful that the mere mention of them kills people

well yeah...they are terroists and thats what they do so the reaction is fear and escape...Fear is a big friend or foe to any country, (Nazis, Stalin,Kim Il Sung) In fact EVERY country has used fear to keep citizens in line or demoralize them.
That's exactly what they are doing and that is their goal.

Yeah, the death toll was around 1000 according to the evening news. Some terrorist group has claimed responsibility. No explosive material was found on the bridge. Apparent, one guy just suddenly pointed at another guy, and yelled the equivalent of "OMG! SUICIDE BOMBER!" Hence, panic.
