If you do something sus, the police can likely request who had which IP at which time and lead them right to your door.

If the Police can come right to your door, I assume that your ISP has your home address linked to your IP. Could anyone else access it?

Not really, AFAIK the closest external actors can access is the general area based on the central you’re connected to.
Have you tried an IP lookup like What’s my IP?

No I mean if the police can get a warrant to look up your billing info with the ISP, then the employees at the Isp must have some kind of access too. Can theoretically someone could hack in and steal the info.

Sure.
