With a lowercase c in crunch, I have been able to successfully run the command you have here without issue.

This is on a new Kali-Rolling 2016.1 with crunch version 3.6-2

root@kali:~/Desktop# dpkg -l | grep crunch
ii  crunch                                                      3.6-2                               i386         tool for creating wordlist

Looks like you are using the 64 bit version while my previous test was 32 bit. I tried this just now on a fresh Kali 2016.1 amd64 image and I'm not able to replicate the issue so there may be something wrong with your specific machine.

root@kali:~/Desktop# dpkg -l | grep crunch
ii  crunch                                                      3.6-2                               amd64         tool for creating wordlist
