Quite literally the main function of dice is to give you random numbers. Looking over the website and readme I could not surmise why they would call it DiceDB except for "it sounds nice", but it's absolutely not unreasonable to look at the name and have a thought "it's probably a joke project about random results".
There are literal mountains of software named for no particular reason (let alone sounding nice), or named by origins no person would ever infer without digging in deeper.
Reasonable people realize this and won't discard a project as a joke because of such a teneous connection, and the fact they've gotten traction is a testament to that.
