Now that's one interesting mystery! Probably a feature that was theorized very early in development bug got cut, like some of the unused heroes. Only the devs would know what it was supposed to do, but we can suspect a few things based on the info you posted:

1. This has three progress levels, so it is probably a progressively better stat bonus rather than a one-off thing like Steamroller.
2. It is clearly related to the number of attacks that meet specific criteria, not to kills.
3. Number is rather low, so it must me something not that common, but possible to set-up reliably.

Considering all of the above I would suspect this is either attacks in which the enemy did not retaliate (least likely, easy to farm on damaged units or with heroes), all attack were kills and none were suppression (also relatively easy to set up, so probably not the case), or instances where the attack destroys a full strength unit in one go. The last one is the most difficult, but not impossible option - perhaps something that got cut due to the way it would interact with overstrenght and overruns?
