John Cusak's character used it in that movie based on the Nick Hornby book about the guy who owned a record store. I had no luck googling "with a bullet." And it does not seem to be in Wikipedia.

This is killing me.
Yes, that's the context. Probably originated with annoying DJ's (like Casey Kasem) reporting on the movement of a Top 40 song going up the chart either quickly, or placing high right off the bat.
