Well the way I read it, Plato's ideas generally amounted to a singular God-type entity. From what I understand, ancient Greek has a shitload of declension stuff, so I imagine they have a plural and singular for the word "gods". Also, in Hebrew the word "God" was technically plural. My guess is that he really did use a singular word for (or at least comparable to the Christian word for) God, but that the capitalization and representation of the word were pushed a little.
I have a friend who knows ancient Greek who I could ask, but he's out of the country and texting this kind of question would be obnoxious.
