I think they were "inspired" by it but didn't steal it. A couple of things seemed to come directly from Diku, one being the need for food and drink, and another was the autosave that used to happen every 10 minutes or so (P99 and Live no longer have it).
There were lots of Dikumuds. As part of the basic Diku I don't recall any cannibalize type effect, but there may have been on some mud somewhere.
