It originally referred to an unexpected non-ASCII character in a text file: "There's a frog in my file!" It was sometimes put there by a buggy editor or corrupt file system. By extension it's a character, still usually unprintable (before Unicode fonts), that doesn't belong in its context. It's a bit of a stretch to call "/" a frog, but that's just the name of the array.
