I read that as him refering to Barry once I read the whole thing. Think about it the mission was to retrieve Barry so he could help the Legion in the future so it makes sense at that point it was an allusion that they got the speedster who is faster (or something along those lines).

I can't see KK trying to say he's faster than a speedster when he's placed so much importance on the mission (aka Barry)
