Cylon is a singing robot, who, with his partner Garfunkel, performed at the Bend-Aid concert in San Francisco. He is in the bus that runs Bender over, after Bender faked being broken. In Bender's Big Score one scene shows Turanga Leela and Lars Fillmore visiting the Cylon War Memorial suggesting that the Cylons exist in some way in the Futurama universe and fought a war with Earth, thus its possible that Cylon is both his name and the name of his race of robots.
