It was a reference to the Kings Regiment, you probably knew that but you had to stick your oar in with your usual incisive wit.

Glad you let us into that secret, we've all been thinking 6 cleaners were allocated to every street. Very perceptive. Please go away.

This would have been when the town/city of Liverpool was part of a county, so that’s a reasonable part of the town to be conscripted under the banner of the town. Especially as lots would be called in to maritime use. Anyone nearby would be Lancashire/Cheshires.
My Grandma always wrote to her rellies “Liverpool, Lancashire” into the 1950s, I think.

I couldn't believe 53 battalions, but there were labour battalions, port battalions etc.
