The man page for whiptail says that you can "move between the menu entries by pressing the UP/DOWN keys, the first letter of the tag as a hot-key.". So if you press the r key twice and then hit enter you will get a root shell.

To make this more obvious you could change the menu entries to something like "(R)oot Drop to root shell prompt" or "2 Drop to root shell prompt".
