I don't think it's been necessarily like directly hinted at cause it's mainly hints that Unohana is a very very strong and big problem of a Captain along with being one of the oldest alongside Yamamoto but I would have never guessed or assumed that she was the first Kenpachi purely on hints pointing toward her strength.

Uhhh, I love the detail of the Databook

The Unohana reveal has been hinted at/foreshadowed since VERY early on in the series. 1. Everyone, even Captains as powerful as Shunsui and Ukitake are shown to be afraid of her (though this often played off for comedic relief). 2. Her other name, Retsu, means "violent" or fierce", hinting at her true nature. 3. In the SS arc, she is the first Captain to notice something is off about Aizen's death (even while under complete hypnosis). When she arrives in the Underground Meeting assembly area after Aizen waxes Hitsugaya, he acknowledges that he thought she would be showing up soon. 4. If you recall Kenpachi's backstory flashback from the SS arc, he tells Yachiru that he named her after the one person he admires and respects. The First Kenpachi, Unohana Yachiru is that person. 5. In Las Noches, Rudobonne chooses to back off and avoid fighting her once he sees her. 6. Even from the first databooks, her total combat ability score was 540/600, which is second only to Aizen and Yamamoto who both have a total of 560/600. Her special ability was also listed as kenjutsu, NOT healing.
