David,
Just noticed that on my copy of census, odd. The only thing I have come up with is in the early part of the war, the RN had some armoured flamethrowers built on QL chassis to protect their airfields, 60 were built, but this is definitly not these because the WD number denotes late '44 era. The fact that they are part of a QLR contract could mean they were meant as armoured command vehicles, because of the PTO generator fitted to these chassis.
