It's not a defined conversion, it's the literal, internationally ratified definition of what those units are. Or maybe "redefinition" ought to be the word there; prior to that definition there were several very similar, roughly equal but ultimately not internationally standardised units in use. And since they were redefined in terms of SI units, they're technically SI.
This is one of those "tomatoes are technically fruit, but no-one with good sense would put them in a fruit salad" situations.
