Hubble's Constant is a number that relates the velocity of a galaxy to its distance from an observer, and is generally describing the rate of expansion of the Universe as a whole. Hence, Hubble's Constant is not related to galactic orbits, which describes the motions of a galaxy within a local galactic cluster.

No, not at all. The two are completely different.
