An allusion is a reference in a text to another well-known text, person, event, or thing. Here, the passage is referring to the ides of March, or Caesar's death.

This is a cultural allusion because ides means the 15th of a month, but it also means a bad omen or a threat. This is a historical allusion because the ides of March is when Caesar was assassinated.

Clearly, the soothsayer is not the only one to have mentioned the ides of March. In the passage, Brutus mentions it. Also, since Shakespeare himself wrote this whole play, he is no doubt familiar with the meaning of the ides of March.
