The fact that Germany made use of Aluminum so much had a simple reason: They had access to the material. They had problems obtaining other metals (and even wood), so using the material that was easiest to obtain made sense.

'' Fortuntately " for DWM and Mauser, the Dürener Metallwerke, main supplier of Aluminum, were part of the same conglomerate.
