I'm not saying it means nothing. I mean that something like world saving is a little overkill considering no one knows about the Arc Family. Despite it's a family of warriors, it hasn't been mentioned it by someone else than Jaune himself unlike Weiss Schnee which both Blake and Oobleck knew about prior the events of the series. Since Jaune is in Beacon, you would think that in a place where 99% of the population are hunters, maybe even the janitor, someone must know about the Arc family. However, we haven't seen that despite the fact that Jaune himself refers to his family as heroes.

So the question is: What is exactly a hero for Jaune?

Besides, that reason why they made Jaune mention it has already been explained. He mentioned it to explain why he did it, why sneaking into Beacon knowing perfectly that his chances for survival were under the ground. However, there is a chance that they're planning to give it an even more deeper reason (Jaune's sword is almost exactly the same as the man in the statue of Beacon).
