"What to Know
Eighty-six is slang meaning "to throw out," "to get rid of," or "to refuse service to." It comes from 1930s soda-counter slang meaning that an item was sold out. There is varying anecdotal evidence about why the term eighty-six was used, but the most common theory is that it is rhyming slang for nix."
Ok, your point is accurate. Source 8 is accurate while source 9 is a snopes fact check. The "Fact Check" says it's a legend, so in reality it is a fact.
Google up the slang dictionary and even Wikipedia . It means kill,expicaly in this context.
Well I found this on Merriam Webster

It's the context. If someone says 86 that pile of wood,it would mean to toss it away.
86ing a person is to kill them.
