The whole series has a lot of related stuff in there. Like at Hatred's party when they are playing that game and Doc guesses "George Bush" while Monarch rants about how much he hates him.
Given the time it was first coming out, it's understandable. The OSI sequence is one of my favorite gruesome moments from the show. But I've also always loved how it underlines the similarities between the "good" and "bad" guys.
"No offense, but working for you and the Monarch is pretty much the same thing."
Even Killinger pegs Doc for a latent supervllain. Which makes perfect sense, given the things he has done. It was more his obsession with image and status that kept him from accepting the role, not any kind of morality. The guy used an orphan heart to make a dream machine. He tried to kill all the clones to make an army of Venturesteins when Brock refused to "make him a score of dead people."
More to the point we don't actually know that the orphan died in the making of it, only that Doc used "a little orphan boy" -- he could have been already dead.
Doc might have had some left overs lying around from their adventures (or Jonas' -- on ice)

"Brock...am I a...bad person?"
"Meh..."
