Mel Brooks was absolutely brilliant but that was just another joke in the movie. The use of the swastika by the NAZIs was part of their mystical mythology about being descended from Aryans.

Swastika - As the symbol of Nazism

The use of the swastika was incorporated by Nazi theorists with their conjecture of Aryan cultural descent of the German people. Following the Nordicist version of the Aryan invasion theory, the Nazis claimed that the early Aryans of India, from whose Vedic tradition the swastika sprang, were the prototypical white invaders.

True, but don’t forget “Springtime for Hitler” was supposed to be the flop in the movie called “The Producers”.

So, the ‘four 7’s’ was another joke in the movie that was a joke in the movie that was a joke.
