I think (and I'm sure this applies to most if not all EMU servers) this is because the newer formula is being used for special attacks. Either that, or the formula at max levels was just used to cascade down through all skill levels. I think this incorrect usage also applies to monk special attacks and backstab.
If I remember correctly in live the max hit for kick and bash 'back in the day' was 24 or 25, which leads me to believe the correct damage should be something like skill/8; pre-51 anyway.
For flying kick I can't remember exactly, but for some reason 76 or 134 come to mind, maybe someone else can verify?
