Those specific monster movies are really only notable anymore for the influence that they've had

Agreed, and while the Wolfman hasn't had the same impace as dracula, he'd had more impact than the mummy at least before the Brendan Fraiser films. And even before the Brendan Fraiser films, it would have been weird if somone said "What the fuck is the mummy?" You'd point to scooby Doo and go "Seriously?"

People would know about mummies through diffuse pop-cultural sources, but that's not the same as knowing about the original Universal movie

Oh, I see, no, I'm not talking about knowing about the movie the wolfman. I'm talking about knowing about the CHARACTER of the Wolfman.

But how would you know about the character of The Wolfman without knowing about the movie?

You can't know about the character just by knowing about werewolves, because werewolves are a general kind of horror monster that aren't specifically connected to The Wolfman (and also are called by a different name). So I don't see how you'd make the connection without knowing about the actual specific movie.
