He saw the gas bill.
The joke is an example of dark humor that makes a pun on the word “gas.” Historically, Adolf Hitler, the leader of Nazi Germany, is known to have committed suicide in 1945 as the Allies closed in on Berlin. The punchline unexpectedly links this historical fact with the notion of receiving a utility “gas” bill. The word “gas” in this context is meant to refer to the use of gas by the Nazis in concentration camps during the Holocaust.
