Along the same lines, why the E55? Surely they should have found a S-class instead?
Thinking about it the other way round, the S8 is the odd one out.
(and the Quattorporte partially, as its a much lighter car more akin to a M3)
Perhaps they put the S8 in the mix because it is more sporty than any S-class or 7-series offerings of the time, and a more premium product than the S6?
Even though its bigger, weight-wise it is very similar to the M5.
