You can also do:

<<
 \new Staff 
 { c''1 \mark "molto" c'' }
 \new Staff \with {
   \consists "Mark_engraver"
 }
 { c'1 \mark "molto" c' }
>>

i.e., let the Score take the mark for the top staff (so you don't need to
explicitly instantiate the Score) and then add the Mark_engraver to the
rest of the staves.
