It might be a pun:

King’s Cross railway station, also known as London King’s Cross, is a passenger railway terminus in the London Borough of Camden, on the edge of Central London. The terminus of one of the major rail routes between London and the North.

I see what you did there :slight_smile:
Could have also been any of these stand out names for a terminal (plenty to choose from):

  • Cockfosters
  • Elephant & Castle
  • Harrow-on-the-Hill
  • Waterloo [also terminus]
    or…
  • Heathrow Terminal 5

The name is very fitting because as users of libre technology we are all kings over our own technology.

That made this particular terminus more widely known, and may have been why they selected that terminus above others.
