The 1986 HP T&M catalog (e.g.) mentions a Gas Chromatograph/Mass
Spectrometer that uses a 1000 RTE-6/VM system as a control and data
processor on page 736. ?From the picture, it's a monster, so I suspect that
your ROMs are accelerators for the data processing part.

This particular HP-1000F was obtained from a LabX auction listing a
few years back and given the equipment that is typically listed there
it wouldn't be surprising at all if it was part of a GC/MS system.
I could try dumping these ROMs if anyone has a real interest in
archiving their contents.
