Click on his photo. It is NOT an SCR. It's an electro-mechanical device, NOT a semiconductor.

With most attached photos, you click once to get a preview, click again and it will open in a new window, click a third time and it will zoom to full size.

If you look closely, you'll see it has a coil and core, and a piece mounted on flexible steel with what are clearly contacts. It's either a buzzer or a vibrator, which mechanically are the same.

EDIT: electrically, a vibrator may more than one sets of contacts, so the coil doesn't have to be rated to handle the full load.
