This shouldn't be that surprising. Red Hat was one of the first
Linux distributions to push for certification exams, and IIRC the
first Linux-related certs were all Red Hat Linux certs.

Red Hat still has a bit of a crazy following among many enterprise
lots. I think they get this by appealing to features easy to market
to management more than for technical merits, personally.
