My guess: Those cultits we see are Herma-Mora cultists. Miraak/First Dragonborn is/was their High Priest. Knowledge can be considered a means to power, and things with Dova souls like power, so who else would a power-loving First Dragonborn go to for knowledge? Herma-Mora. Thus the priesthood begins.
