Wikipedia indicates that the song was written specifically for the American version of the Danger Man TV series, although it could apply to a lot of movies and TV shows in the mid-1960's.
The line, "They've given you a number and taken away your name" probably helped fuel speculation that McGoohan's character on The Prisoner was John Drake from Danger Man/Secret Agent. McGoohan denied it, but he would have to, since he did not own Danger Man.
