While it can be unblocked with Ctrl-Q, this is not the kernel SysRq.

The magic SysRq key is activated by holding Alt, the SysRq (print screen
on many keyboards) key, and a letter key.
A very useful one is Alt-SysRq-(sequence of S U B) which syncs the root
partition, remounts it read-only, and then reboots the system. Great way
to reboot a computer that is badly locked.

But that has nothing to do with KDE...
