It All Starts with the SAPI

Though it may look very different, the CLI binary actually behaves just the same way. A php command, entered at the system prompt starts up the "command line sapi," which acts like a miniweb server designed to service a single request. When the script is done running, this miniPHP-web server shuts down and returns control to the shell.
