This is from before I was born, but this makes me think digital LCD displays must have been associated with ultra high tech stuff, so this typeface could evoke images of Area 51 and alien technology.

In my earliest memories, the typeface would be a curious choice. It might be associated with robots or digital communication, but certainly not alien technology.
