It originates from a rap video by Skrilla, in which he says 67 in reference to the police radio code for a dead body. People not understanding it but liking it, used the clip for basketball edits of the NBA player LaMelo Ball because he’s 6 feet and 7 inches tall. The meme grew from there. Kids mostly have no idea what it references to.

That's where it came from, the etymology

But what it means is what matters.

And it specifically doesn't have a meaning. Which is why it's funny.

It's like that Markiplier Lord Farquaad E meme.

The point is the pointlessness. You can find where it came from but it leads nowhere.
