That variable is for the URL package, and controls the URL history
saved on a file:

  url-history-track is a variable defined in ‘url-history.el’.

  Its value is nil

  Controls whether to keep a list of all the URLs being visited.
  If non-nil, the URL package will keep track of all the URLs visited.
  If set to t, then the list is saved to disk at the end of each Emacs
  session.

We could make that variable affect EWW as well, but please file a
feature request bug report for that, so that we could discuss possible
implementations and user-facing aspects of that.

That is not a user-level variable.  The user option which controls
this is eww-suggest-uris.
