It's not a service. As I said, it's run using a script in
/etc/cron.hourly

You don't say, but if this is CentOS 7, then cron.daily/weekly/monthly
is run using anacron, not cron.
It's configured in /etc/anacrontab and is usually run once a day by the

says:
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl status crond.service
