'color' mode has nothing to do with the actual value, it just creates a hue over your existing values. You can easily spot this by turning your image black and white (the 'color' column marks won't be visible at all).
If you need 'strong dark' brown, you need strong dark value to begin with.

'Color
Creates a result color with the luminance of the base color and the hue and saturation of the blend color. This preserves the gray levels in the image and is useful for coloring monochrome images and for tinting color images.'

I hope this clears this up for you. Cheers and keep working.
