It does refer to a scene in the original Mary Poppins movie where the soot-covered chimney sweeps are mistaken for hottentots by the Admiral,...

The Admiral mistaking the dirty faced sweeps for hottentots, is not blackface, they didn't blacken their faces to look like something else, they didn't even do it intentionally.
The Admiral firing on the sweeps thinking the were hottentots wasn't racism, it's because they had a history of violence against each other, been prior fighting. Granted they probably got to the fighting stage because of racism but it's beyond that point. That's like saying the US marine on Guadalcanal hating Japs is racist.
