No, it's not at KSC, that one is made up of S-IC-T (test stage) and the second and third stages from SA-514. It never flew. The SA-506 (Apollo 11) 1st stage was probably too damaged after falling down 68 miles into the ocean to be displayed (they only display parts that never flew). The second module fell down around 110 miles. The third module is lost in space, probably orbiting the earth. Only the command module (Columbia) returned to earth unscathed (it's in the Washington national air and space museum), the lunar module (eagle) was left in space.
