The short form is "you can't".

You're using the "v2" XML format for xml2rfc, which produces as various
output formats text, pdf, and "htmlized" output.  The "htmlized" output is
called that and not "html" because it's the result of taking the text
output and running a script to turn common constructions in I-Ds and RFCs
into hopefully-useful HTML formatting.  In this case, "Section N" outside
of "Section N of [bracketed-reference]" is assumed to be "Section N of the
current document", and that's all that the htmlization script is going to
give you, since it's not working with the semantic richness of the XML
source.

We do, however, as of fairly recently have a "v3" XML format, which is
capable of producing native HTML output that includes SVG figures and the
other exciting features of "v3 XML".  For an example, see
https://www.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-tsvwg-datagram-plpmtud-19.html .

I personally haven't done any v2-to-v3 conversions yet (too busy reading to
have time to do much writing), but the FAQ entry for doing so is at
https://www.rfc-editor.org/materials/FAQ-xml2rfcv3.html#name-how-do-i-convert-my-xml-fil
.

Hope that helps,

Ben
