I don't remember mention of it being on any other cars with reviews or test reports of the time so very possibly a Packard exclusive.

According to the service bulletin referenced in post #2 cars shipped from the factory after Nov 20, 1950 did not have the whistle nor did any service replacement tanks already in the warehouse available for shipment after that date. I would take that to mean that it was eliminated very early in 51 production so those 51s that did have it must have been in cars shipped as initial zone and dealer stock and actually sold later in the year.
