Need help with a television and magazine reference

This is a dumb question, but its been driving me nutzo.

I've seen and heard references on television and in books about shooting off a pistol and counting the shots in German.

Like:

*BANG!* "Ein!"

*BANG!* "Zwei!"

*BANG!* "Drei!"

*BANG!* "Vier!" etc, until the gun is empty.

What exactly is this a reference to? I have no idea if this is offensive to anyone or not, so if it is, please don't yell at me.
