Could somebody explain why my server has booted up using the latest kernel (v3.10.0-1127.10.1), yet the needs-restarting app says I still need to reboot to the new kernel?

[user@domain ~]$ uname -r
3.10.0-1127.10.1.el7.x86_64


[user@domain ~]$ needs-restarting -r
Core libraries or services have been updated:
  systemd -> 219-73.el7_8.6
  kernel -> 3.10.0-1127.10.1.el7

Reboot is required to ensure that your system benefits from these updates.

I'm not sure what caused this issue, but I did a yum history undo to revert back to a time before my yum updated kernel/systemd files. I then removed the kernel RPM to make sure it didn't boot. Once that was done, I rebooted, did a fresh yum update, rebooted, and then everything was back to normal.

Weird Event....
