I'm working on rows of hi intensity ir LEDS to affix around my license plate powered through the license plate light. the IR's should blind the camera but cannot be observed by the eye Why would that work since the camera is not using a night vision IR setting?

Why would that work since the camera is not using a night vision IR setting? Digital camera chips (both CMOS and CCD) are very sensitive to IR. Depending on whether the manufacturer used an IR filter it would be like having a very bright light surrounding your license plate.

Digital cameras do not filter out IR (unless a filter is added). I came across that while playing with my camera phone and a remote.
you can try it yourself, turn on your camera look at the screen then point a tv remote at it, press a button.
