I think xdeadpoeticsX is right. The part about being more popular than Hitler, I'm guessing, was probably inspired by John Lennon saying the Beatles were bigger than Jesus back in the '60s. Perhaps was a parody of that--Jesus is the polar opposite of Hitler, and that's what makes it funny. TON does seem to be influenced slightly by the Beatles, especially since they like to do Beatles covers (Day Tripper, Back in the USSR, etc.) and sometimes use sitar (e.g. Less Than Zero (<0)). Also, Hitler is extremely unpopular these days, especially in Germany, so being more popular than him doesn't say much--in fact it's self-deprecating humor. The song seems to make fun of "hatecore" punk in general as well.
