Unless there's a separate reference, I think it's more likely referencing a childhood game. One kid plays the 'wolf' and others have to move slowly towards them across an open space. Whenever 'Mr Wolf' turns to face them after hearing movement, someone has to ask 'What time is it Mr Wolf?' to which the wolf can respond with whatever time they like, until they think someone is close enough for them to catch before actually touching/passing them and 'winning'. At that point they answer "Dinnertime" and it basically becomes a game of tag until the wolf catches someone, and they can become the next Mr Wolf.
At least those were the rules when I played. It's one of those folk games which have a million variants. :D
