My MacBook was overheating when I left it off and charging for a couple hours, it only got to 61% battery, and when I went to use it again it was making fan noises and overheating. Once i started using it and checked battery stuff the battery usage was the highest when i wasn’t using it and then it started cooling down and went quiet.
I’m so confused, can someone help or explain please? 😵💫

If the laptop was truly powered OFF and connected to the power supply to charge and that caused overheating, either your battery or other related charging circuitry in the laptop are faulty. Only reaching 61% is also consistent with a hardware fault.
The reason you need to take it in for service is that these batteries can actually catch on fire when they are defective. This is not something you should try to diagnose yourself with advice from an online forum like this.
