If the other books on the Kindle are already in Calibre, then there is a way. If the books are not (all) already in Calibre, then you'll need to manually create a collection and put those books into it using the Edit Collections option of the plugin.
For the books already in calibre, it sounds like you might need to move to using a custom column. You could just create a simple text custom column and then enter in the Collection name you want to use against each book, and then configure the plugin to create collections based on that column as well as the Series column.
Or you could create a custom column based on other columns, and to tell that column to either contain the Series name if there is one, or to contain a collection name if there isn't (e.g.
{series:'ifempty($, "Catchall")'} ) You would then configure the plugin to just create Collections using that custom column (and not create for Series anymore) - and you can test the results using Preview.
