Pippin:

 Adult wizards at King's Cross would have to be wearing Muggle dress
unless they apparated in or used disillusionment charms. Actual Muggle
parents would blend in. Harry, or the narrator, assumed that the
adults he saw were witches and wizards, that's all. Harry didn't know
any Muggle parents by sight, except the Grangers, so how would he know?
