does that have to do with them capping wins at 10 points?

I think it's because Kenpom and Torvik put more weight on recent games. NET rankings have the same weight all season.
I don't think Kenpom lists exactly what his weights are, but in his 2016 update he says: "The weighting coefficients to handle recency and game importance have been changed."
Torvik: "There's a recency bias—all games in the last 40 days count 100%, then degrade 1% per day until they're 80 days old, after which all games count 60%"
