Etymology

14 is from the Fourteen Words, a White nationalist slogan by David Lane. 14-88, 14/88, 88² are all tied to 74 in David's "Pyramid Prophecy" (each 14 Words slogan containing 74 characters and the value 741).

88 has also been used by some (albeit not Lane) to signify HH, an abbreviation of Heil Hitler with the letters replaced by their numerical position in the alphabet.
