Don't know where that comes from, but I think it has to do with the institutionalized authoritative power that comes with the job. Both are positions that can be abused, and can negatively impact people's lives.

On the other hand, my past landlords were nowhere near as helpful about noise complaints, as the police. So there's that.

Not just positions that can be abused, but positions that are fundamentally abusive no matter how good the individual occupying them may be

I almost got evicted over a bogus noise complaint. You are basically illustrating the point of the meme.
