In short: Kodi renders in OpenGL, which is only "stopped" by swapBuffers. If this is not vsynced, it will do whatever the hw wants. Syncing to Display is btw. implemented as syncing to "vsync" which should match the repaint of the display. But won't work without vsync obviously.
If you adjust refreshrate ...

That's why I said about v-sync being disabled, it's like G-Sync or Freesync, the FPS are matching the screen refresh rate.

Let's ask another time: How you you render 123 fps or alternatively 100 fps on a 60 hz screen?
