There's a free plugin to help you do that:

You also can use Script Runner plugin to load values into custom field configurations. There is a builtin script for that.

Is this for dynamic loading of the drop down from a database, or is this intended for a static upload? 

Also, does the database have to be the JIRA database, or can you use another database, specifying the server, database, table, userid, and password.

This is for a static upload of values. For dynamic loading from a different database (or textfile) you should try the nFeed plugin.
