Ummm ... you're maybe underestimating Lorca here. His mission was to fit in and he was clearly capable and motivated to do so. He most likely would not have made references that weren't accurate for his new mirror universe. Just a little bit of reading and cultural awareness would have enabled this.

Plus, I don't recall what the actual reaction to this was, but if it was anything other than confusion, the reference made sense in-universe.
