Most people, when they quit smoking, feel jittery. Keeping you hands busy (with Silly Putty, for instance) is a way to give your body something to do and take your mind off the craving. Lots of quitters also chew gum.
Also smoking uses the hands with the act of smoking as the smoker takes the cigarette to and from the mouth. When a smoker quits the hands can feel "restless" as thy now lack the tasks associated with smoking. The silly Putty gives the quitting smoker something to do with their hands.
