The correct location of RecordSelection object must be referenced.

const InDesign = require('indesign') ;
const { app } = InDesign ;
const doc = app.activeDocument ;
doc.dataMergeProperties.dataMergePreferences.recordSelection = InDesign.RecordSelection.ONE_RECORD ;

or

const InDesign = require('indesign') ;
const { app, RecordSelection } = InDesign ;
const doc = app.activeDocument ;
doc.dataMergeProperties.dataMergePreferences.recordSelection = RecordSelection.ONE_RECORD ;
