I think this is what happens:

Let's say for the covenant you are ranking up in, you go from rank 0 to rank 1 after 10 kills. You then go to rank 1 to rank 2 after 100 kills. If, by chance, you get 100 kills without collecting any rewards, talking to the covenant leader will activate the dialogue for reaching rank 1, and then you'll gain the rank 1 items. If you talk to them again, the dialogue for reaching rank 2 will activate, getting the rank 2 items.
