Secret software programs within other programs is called “Easter eggs” and the earliest known Easter egg in software is one placed in the "make" command for PDP-6/PDP-10 computers sometime in October 1967–October 1968, where if the user attempts to create a file named "love" by typing "make love", the program responds "not war?" before proceeding.

I remember this. But I thought it was more than companies and specifically the US government saying they couldn't have secret Easter eggs for security reasons.

You used to be able to play games within Excel with Shockwave Flash. This is no longer supported unfortunately. :(

These are called Easter Eggs. Lots of software publishers had them in their apps, even the game makers. All the OGs of the time knew about it or use to keep tab on them.
