Unlikely to be the source as TIFF was first released 1986 and HHGTTG initial "release" was 1978. Although I'm not sure "the answer" was mentioned in the original radio show.

Right, the TIFF creators were obviously inspired by the Hitchhikers Guide.

Hah, obviously, I misunderstood the intent of your comment, makes much more sense the other way around :)
