Kirchoff is "the law" here indeed! Series connected battery's VOLTAGEs are additive, but their currents (i.e. CCA) are not. This is because when connected in series the same current passes thru both batteries in sequence.

Energy storage (watt-hours) for series-connected batteries is the same deal. It equals total series battery voltages times the current rating of any ONE battery in the series. Consequently a 12 volt 900 CCA battery will have the identical energy storage capacity as (2) 6 volt 900 CCA batteries connected in series. And both battery arrangements will perform identically in service.
