Nope.... Adm. Grace Hopper was "one" of the original group that came
up with a standard version of COBOL for the government.

RPG as we know it ran on the early 360/20 and I suppose on even early
machines. This was RPG(no versions) and worked with card compilers
which produced card object programs.

The first "version" was RPGII for the S/3 and of course you know what
happened after that.
