Conversion performed by calibre can optionally break up HTML files based on the configuration parameters provided. That sometimes leads to the sort of results you are seeing. Look at the Detect Chapters setting under the Structure Detection tab.

However if you are using From KFX to generate the EPUB and doing no further conversion after that then the set of HTML files in the EPUB produced reflects the actual internal structure of the book as provided by Amazon.

If you can provide the title and author or ASIN of some books that exhibits this problem I may be able to tell from the free samples whether the file splitting came that way from the publisher or was done later.

If that is way the book is actually formatted you will need to edit it manually to correct it.
