It's not me that dreamt the hardcoded mac address and I'm not claiming kodi is assigning it, either. It's something which is part of the release notes (readme.md) of libshairplay.
Please go to the link https://github.com/juhovh/shairplay/blob.../README.md and check out the part starting with Multiple instances.
Now, since you state that Kodi doesn't pass any paramater to libshairplay (not even sure if it accepts it as a library or only as a command line when running shairplay), most likely the default, hardcoded value is broadcasted by kodi as well, for all instances inside a network.
The local mac address of any of the devices running kodi has apparently nothing to do with the identifier used to broadcast the airplay server.
