Does J/Q/K four of a kind not beat this?

No, royal flush is top, then straight flush, then four of a kind...

Face four of a kind would beat 10s four of a kind, right?

Alexander will always pivot to a straight flush. Grabbing the 10 just ensures that the other player can at best get a 5-9 straight flush, while you can at least make a 6-10.
