The title of the arc is literally just a nod to Star Wars. That's basically all it is. Miura was a fan of Star Wars so he made the name of the arc a reference to it. The plot of the arc has no similarities to Star Wars whatsoever from what I remember. But that's why people shorten the name to Millennium Falcon.

The Arc name is a star wars reference. Also, whilst the band of the "hawk" has become the accepted English translation, Japan actually doesn't distinguish between Hawk and Falcon (both are just 鷹) - so it's pretty possible that the Band of the Hawk was actually intended to be the Band of the Falcon (which I doubt was a reference just an interesting thing).

Actually, having just looked it up, it does seem that the Band of the Falcon is the intended translation and IS also a reference to the millennium falcon. From an interview with Miura Q2: Regarding the kanji "Taka," do you intend that to be Falcon or Hawk? Was there ever a conscious change in its usage, such as after Griffith's reincarnation, or has it always been "falcon" to you? “Falcon” or “Hawk”, both mean [鷹] in Japanese. In some dictionaries, “Falcon ” is translated as [隼(はやぶさ)] but there’s almost no difference. I used "Falcon" from the great name of the “Millennium Falcon" ship in Star Wars.
