"Malkuth" is the Hebrew word for "Kingdom." The word is associated with Jewish mysticism, i.e., Kaballah. This same story also features a character known as Golem, which is also associated with Jewish mysticism. Furthermore, the Malkuth Troop is part of the Warheads, a branch of Mys-Tech, which is dedicated to taking over the world using a mixture of technological and occult/mystical means. It is reasonable to conclude that the Malkuth Troop is somehow tied to or derived from Kaballah. But this would need to be confirmed through a careful reading of this story.
