That's quite a tale, but all a bit vague.
I'll grant that the Vodka/Kahlua mix was first made in America, but it was 
probably much later than the "odourless whiskey" campaign. 
It doesn't seem like an ad campaign product, and doesn't seem to be linked to 
Smirnoff specifically. The "Russian" in the make is an easy given for any 
bartender to name it.

However, I have no references either, I'm just not convinced by this theory.

Tried a "Golden Russian" with Galliano? It's one of only 3 drinks I actually 
find Galliano good for.
