We're not talking some random nobody, but the father of the character originally voiced by the show's creator. It isn't as if this is being given much thought, either. The video game character is named for the historical character so having a character that looks like him allude to the historical figure is not complicated. After all, it is kind of cheating if they have a character reference a video game character named for a historical figure and then use the historical figure for some other character. Having him reference some completely different character would be even weirder.
