Dont know the rules in California but here a "total loss" is defined by law as "repairs costing greater than 75% of the value of the vehicle". The "value" of the vehicle is the "retail sells price of the car", usually determined by the NADA or KBB retail value.
My child recently hit a deer and got $4375 for a car I paid $5100 for 5 years ago. Usually you come out alright on total loss claims.
