Keep in mind they used to call this beer Mai-er bock. The Dead Guy
labelling came out when they used it in connection with the Day of the
Dead holiday (no idea why...?)

A Mexican restaraunt in PDX asked for a "special" batch for Day of the
Dead is the story I heard.

So the idea here I guess is that the grain bill is that of a maibock,
and the yeast is top fermenting. Does that really mean it can't be
called a maibock?

Technically, if you care about such things, yes, it does. And I don't
find the grain bill all that comparable to most maibocks I'm familiar
with.
