Here's the best chip-truth I have heard so far: There is a secret story in Pulp Fiction about Marcellus Wallace selling his soul to the devil, who extracted it through a small exit wound on the back of his neck. Hence the band-aid. This is also why Vincent Vega and Jules are sent to retrieve it, why the combination reads 666 and also why everyone who looks in the briefcase is dazzled. And that's why God saved Vince and Jules' asses. Insert Judaeo-Hebrew ethic regarding sin and getting anally raped here.
