The thing is, you don't hear anybody say it. Perhaps it's just a generational thing, perhaps it's that The Who spanned a couple of different eras of music.

People definitely talk about them as their FAVORITE band. They just don't talk about them as being "the guys that made us want to start a band".

I watch and read a lot of music media. When guys from the late 70's, 80's and 90's talk about influences, almost all of them mention KISS.
