Maybe it was used as one later on in the 60s and that's where the nomenclature came from. The FA76 listed as the ignition condenser for a 1951 Mercury car application but the FA66 is also listed there with the alternator nominclature attached.

I will check the book tomorrow at work.......The alternator condensors ( whick could be the same as ignition units) are on the alternator output side to get ride of radio noise coming from the alternator. later alternators have these condensors inside the case..
