You are confusing two things.
What you are showing as the data are the linked references for the page TODO.
The config you are showing is for use in queries.
These are two unrelated things.
For linked references there are currently no sorting options. See feature request linked by mentaloid.
To have total control over sorting you will have to build a query to get the result you wish for. Plenty of examples on the forum for that.
Could start with the link mentaloid shared.
