While I'll admit to reading up on "Kind Of Blue" @ 0300 hours and was less than refreshed, I'm almost certain the Mono version was derived from the Stereo Master, not recorded in Mono.
Only the people who actually did the original recording could tell the true story. It is most probably a multitrack recording and out of that two, stereo and mono, mixes have been created. Given we had to wait so long prior the wrong speed was fixed in subsequent re-releases, I doubt we will ever know the whole truth about recording of Kind of Blue.
