Change the default KFX Output conversion options to create page numbers. Preferences, Output options, KFX Output, select Create approximate page numbers.

Update the metadata in existing KFX books. Select books with KFX format, Embed metadata (right click), Embed metadata into files of a specific format from selected books, KFX, OK.

Send those books to your Kindle device again.
