I don't recall the exact number or name of the part, but I seem to recall RS, or maybe someone else [too?], having an easter egg item like that.  I thought the part number had some relevance to BTTF, or a quote in the title or something, dunno.

Checking, seems like this last came up on the forum back in 2014-15, and the links are long since dead...

That would make an interesting idea if a distributor wanted to run a contest, burying obviously weird products in their catalogue & having a "treasure hunt"
