Explanation
This is a dark joke playing on the morbid scenario of a suicide bomber about to detonate. The setup is a common question, but the punchline reveals the bomber's intention, twisting the usual meaning of holding up fingers into the countdown before the explosion. It's funny in a disturbing way because it makes light of a very serious and tragic event.
