If you turn off vsync and set throttling to 0 then yes, it will hog the cpu. That is why, by default, vsync is on and throttling is 1.

I didn't touch those settings, vsync is on and throttling is 1.

Your frame rate wouldn't be varying above 60 if vsync was on, unless if your monitor frame rate is higher than that.
Also, 4k is a very high resolution to be running in realtime for most computers, especially with also a high frame rate. You would need a very fast graphics card. Macs are notorious for having underperforming GPUs.

I would agree 4k is a mac killer unless you are running a mac studio, test one of those that my boss has, runs 4k buttery smooth for the price of 10k Canadian! I will down scale to 1920x1080 and stay on my macbook pro.
