I wonder if others know what it really refers to?

it refers to cleaning head lice eggs off of someone's head...
a lice egg attached to a hair follicle is referred to as a "nit"...

and because it is extremely small, it is also referred to when someone says "nit wit"

just thought I would add my 2 cents...
