Clue

The link is stronger on double score dungeons.

They both use Danger Ahead as their theme.

Each dungeon begins with a dramatic rendition of the five-note opening from "Danger Ahead"—the theme to the radio and television series Dragnet—with the fifth note only playing on the double score dungeon screen.

Dragnet is a radio and television crime drama about the cases of a dedicated Los Angeles police detective, Sergeant Joe Friday, and his partners :mrgreen:

Or the Dragnet theme, I'm getting inconsistent answers from Wiki. The double dungeon levels play the full five notes while regular dungeons are the four notes.

Correct. I couldn't think of a clue that didn't turn it into google fodder. Oh well. I guess I could have said "doubly strong" instead of mentioning dungeon. Yay hindsight.
