Kronos, in Greek mythology, became a god as one of the Titans, the descendants of Gaia (Earth) and Uranus (Sky). He overthrew his father, Uranus, in a violent coup by castrating him, which allowed him to take control of the cosmos. As the ruler of the Titans, Kronos became associated with time and harvest, but his reign was marked by fear of being overthrown by his own children, leading him to swallow them at birth until he was eventually defeated by his son Zeus.

How did Poseidon become a god of the sea?

The gods did not happen to become gods, they just were. Poseidon was the son of Kronos and Rhea and thus the brother of Zeus and Hades. Kronos was a Great Titan God. And because of that blood, his children were also gods. As for how they became more specific Gods, once they overthrew Kronos out of anger towards him, they held a lottery to see who would rule over what. Hades drew the Underworld, Zeus drew the Heavens, and Poseidon the sea. Thus becoming God of the Sea.

Why was the sixth planet named after the Greek god Kronos?

The sixth planet in our solar system, Saturn, was named after the Roman god of agriculture rather than the Greek god Kronos. Kronos is associated with the Greek god Cronus, who was the father of Zeus and the ruler of the Titans. The Romans identified Cronus with their god Saturn, hence the naming of the planet.
