The values are documented as part of the KApplication class:
http://tinyurl.com/y6a2tw

the first value is ShutdownConfirm, the second is ShutdownType and the last 
one is ShutdownMode

A comination which might be good for your use case could be
0 0 0
(no confirmation, no shutdown/logout only, schedule shutdown)

or 

0 0 2
(no confirmation, no shutdown/logout only, force now)

It could be (not sure though) that the last value is not important once you 
say "logout only" for the second option.

Cheers,
Kevin
