Killer is probably short for color killer, which is a circuit that looks for the color synchronizing "burst", and if it is below a level specified by the color killer adjustment will turn off the color demodulating circuits (to prevent color noise on monochrome programing). The color killer circuit is not as useful today as it was then because TV stations not only less frequently broadcast monochrome programs, but they also tend to leave the burst going on the monochrome stuff they do broadcast thus giving the circuit little to do. If you want to kill the burst on monochrome shows then there are ways of removing the burst with readily available hardware (anything that outputs component or S-video is a candidate for being the hardware).
Looks like ya, done real good on that set.
