Did Ward and the other Saucony runners really just race Boston in a Dunkin Donuts version of the Kinvara? How do they not have any prototype or pro spec racing flat for their atheletes?

No. They had the Dunkin theme but they were something different than the Kinvara. Likely the same has his NYC prototypes. Someone took first hand pictures during the race and posted them in the Facebook group "Running Shoe Geeks". The upper looks the same but he midsole and outsole are 100% different...which makes them more awesome than the neon green version he was wearing at NYC.
Even just looking at the midsole with the extra Saucony swooshes and stack height and more full outsole coverage here (second picture in post, not the first one):
