You mean data are plural.
"is" is correct here, due to the implied nouns. "Data" in this case is an appositive and serves to describe the implied noun, "word." And "plural" is an implied noun for "plural word"
You can see it most clearly if you fill in the implied nouns:
(the word) data is a plural (word)
I know I just thought it would be funny.
