He thinks his family actually disappeared. He remarks that they couldn't have gone to Paris, because their cars are still in the garage. The garage having been left open is even a plot point, to allow Kevin to make this realization quicker.

He does eventually call the police. It's the last step of his plan. He calls them to his neighbor's house.

The movie is seriously bulletproof. Like how Kevin spills Pepsi on his ticket and we see it accidentally get thrown in the garbage the night before.

Fun story:

When my daughter met Santa Claus for the first time, she'd recently seen Home Alone and was obsessed, and she introduced herself as Kevin.

When it was time to take a picture I said, "Ok [daughter's name which in all fairness does have an "ev" sound in it], get in Santa's sleigh."

Then Santa leaned over and whispered, "Ohh. I thought she said her name was Kevin."

"Yeah, no, she did say Kevin."

Santa thought that was weird.
