Hell if I know! The term originates from the title of Season 1, Episode 4 of the TV show Defying Gravity. As explained in the show, it can be used to appear as though you're giving a technical explanation when in fact you don't know. If someone familiar with the term hears it, it can be considered a request to help explain without embarrassing the original speaker.
