It was originally "coronel" which naturally shortened in pronunciation over time to "kernel" but Enlightenment-era grammarians changed the Oxford spelling to "colonel" to make it closer to the original Latin, meaning "officer of the column." They're the same dudes, btw, you can blame for "debt," which until then was always spelled "dette" or "dett."

There is no "v" sound in Latin, v is pronounced as a u. Americans are the only ones pronouncing it correctly.
