That's part of the christian establishment legend, but not actually true. The romans couldn't have told you the difference between a christian, a jew, or any other heathen.
Pliny the Younger in his letter to Trajan, which would have been contemporaneous with 2 timothy, makes that clear. Roman persecution comes much...much later, in the 300's, responding to the political threat that christianity had since become.
