I'm fairly sure there is no other meaning than the one to which you refer, so its perhaps more likely that you are missing the risqué point being made by assuming the prude levels are higher than you might think. A lot of the folks who make these kinds of hacks, are perfectly fine with the obscure, obscene, perverse nature of their naming of things ... Those of the anthropological inclination may decide that, in fact, an obscene name for something like this is a requisite.

"Go away, I have 69 things to do to DDT before worrying about fixing the bug in the phase of the moon output routine..." (Note: Actually, any number less than 100 but large enough to have no obvious magic properties will be recognized as a "large number". There is no denying that "69" is the local favorite. I don't know whether its origins are related to the obscene interpretation, but I do know that 69 decimal = 105 octal, and 69 hexadecimal = 105 decimal, which is a nice property. - GLS)"
