Anytime you see a 2X, 3X, 4X, etc. underneath combos it means that specific strike hits that many times during that attack's animation (which is usually visually represented as individual swings, but not always). The first attack of every Tempo Royale combo (the 360 degree swing) hits on the initial swing and once again when it comes all the way around, so each strike has a chance to crit. It's not directly giving you a higher crit chance, but you have more chances to crit per swing due to those multi-hit animations.
