My guess is, the plugin is using the values of b:match_words as a
pattern,
and '[' and ']' needs to be escaped to be a valid pattern.
Therefore try either to use
:let b:match_words='\[:\]'

or as a quick look into matchit.vim reveals,
add '[:]' to the 'matchpairs' option which will be handled by the
matchit
plugin automatically (and it escapes those values correctly).

Best,
Christian
