That is the name that Mexican immigrants used for cannabis. This became the commonly used name when it was promoted to cause disgust. The idea was to use the negative image placed on Hispanics to rally anger and hate against cannabis. The government used the "name change" and countless falsified studies to make cannabis illegal.
