Murphy Rule?

Does anybody have a cite for calling automatic doubles (https://www.bkgm.com/faq/BasicRules.html#what_is_an_automatic_double_) the "Murphy Rule"?
I'm working on the Wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backgammon#Doubling_cube) and it's not clear that we have a reliable source that established it's called that.
Automatic doubles appears to be somewhat common, and I can find cites for it, but nothing on the Murphy Rule that passes muster at Wikipedia.
Thanks.
