No, I don't believe that is true. SCCM treats Software Updates deployments the same as any other application or package, and that is, it respects maintenance windows. It won't install updates outside of a maintenance window unless that box is checked, regardless of the deadline. That check box specifically tells the computer whether or not to ignore a maintenance window when the deadline is reached.
