The line comes from the German dubbed version of Monty Python's Life of Brian, the 1979 British comedy about a man mistaken for the Messiah in Roman-occupied Judea. In the film, Roman authority figures repeatedly clash with ordinary people who refuse to show respect, and the harsh order to a centurion fits that running joke about pompous power and defiant subjects. German-speaking fans have kept dubbed Monty Python lines alive in clips and edits, where the old-fashioned, formal insult and the sudden command still work as a shorthand for exaggerated discipline.
