The first Kii-class is what you mentioned, part of 88 fleet plan. The second Kii-class is the planned name for Super Yamato (Not for Kai-Yamato) class.

In Japan it's very common to use "Kii-class" to refer to the Super Yamato. Especially on novels, games and mangas that presumes the plan to come true. For example the old PC game series "Teitoku no Ketsudan" (提督の決断, known as Pacific Theater of Operation when its PS2 counterpart was released in US). BTW, the game uses "Owari-class" to refer to the old Kii-class.
