First off, the orcs rage is for a short time and is not complete strength. If  skinny weak guy threw a 300lb giant guy over his head the giant guy would still be stronger because we are talking complete strength. BTW the nordic orcish war the nords did not outnumber the orcs at all and the nord leader wooped the orcs leaders ass. Second of all he Developers made the lore and gameplay so there is bound to be a pretty significant correlation. Just goin of skyrim nords two handed- requires crazy upper body strength. Orcs heavy armor- requires mmense stamina. If go back farther we see even the nords are consistently stronger. This is reinforced from eso orcs heavy armor affinity, nords two handed affinity. The orcs may be the best fighting race which reuiquires stamina, agility, and strength. The nords may have the most brute strength and raw power. If the devlopers said for 4 games- Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, Eso that the nords were stronger by givng hints through gameplay states I am pretty sure that is how the lore is.
