The expression is used when you have a choice of doing something in different ways, but it doesn't matter which way you choose. It is mostly used in practical situations, very often when using objects.

- Det är hugget som stucket. (It doesn't matter.)
- 'Are we going by train or by bus?'
- Det är hugget som stucket.
I have no idea as for the origin of this expression, sorry.
