Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

I think it's because he thinks it's clever, because X marks the spot, or X is a symbol of an unknown like "Solve for X".
And because in old school programming X was a commonly used label for a temporary variable placeholder.
X is also the Roman numeral for 10. So it could be that he figures it as a symbol of a 10 on a 10 out of 10 scale.
But all these are so common and generic it's quite mundane, and you have to be somewhat childish to still think it's cool when you are 50.
But there is of course also the Danish King Christian X, who was king of Denmark during WW2 and the German occupation. And quite the hero here.
But he was strongly against the Nazi's, and protected the Jews in Denmark, so I think it's extremely unlikely to be that.
