It looks as though units named after people are capitalized (Hertz, Newton, Farad vs meter, liter, gram).

kcal is also written Cal capitalised. Both cal and Cal exist, for both main definitions of calorie.

Apart from that, I think that the rule that you are stating is remarkably consistent all over metric units and related units.
