I don’t see any way to set this when editing ACF field groups.

I did find a filter that might help you, here is the code that calls it in ACF

$field_group = apply_filters('acf/prepare_field_group_for_export', $field_group);

something like:

add_filter('acf/prepare_field_group_for_export', 'add_private_to_groups');
function add_private_to_groups($group) {
  $my_groups = array(
    // create an array of the group keys you want to make private
    'group_57b9eb1116505'
  );
  if (in_array($group['key'], $my_groups) {
    $group['private'] = true;
  }
  return $group;
}

I’m not sure this will work, but it seems like it should.
