Yes!  It took a bit of browsing, but Peeron shows this part having been used
in the Maersk Line series and a few other sets.

I'm not exactly sure if this went on the clips or not, but it looks pretty
likely - would love to find an instruction scan showing whether I'm right or
wrong.

The sets that had these large window shutters were:

#231  Homemaker Hospital Set:  Brown Window Frames/Blue Shutters
#232  Homemaker Bungalow Set:  Brown Window Frames/Green Shutters
#1551 Maersk Promotional Truck: Gray Window Frames/Gray Shutters
#1652 Maersk Promotional Truck: Gray Window Frames/Gray Shutters

One reason that these windows are unknown to Americans is that the above sets
were NEVER sold in the USA.  The #231 and #232 Homemaker sets were sold in
Canada, continental Europe, Britain and Australia.  The #1551 and #1652 were
European promotional sets.

But on the flip side, the yellow 1x6x5 window was only sold in Homemaker
Schoolroom Set #5235, a USA Only set.

Note also, the #231 and #232 Homemaker sets also had unique awnings and flower
boxes that clip onto the 1x6x5 window.
