Makes sense as far as the human eye goes.
If you're in a daylight dogfight and glancing back and forth,from a high-altitude clear sky background to the instrument cluster,the retina would experience a more uniform lighting level maintaining good visual acuity.
If the green is also calming,that would be a plus,given the work environment of a fighter pilot.
