I don't know if it is true or not, but I have been told that in the late 1800s-early 1900s, the British had the most standardized thread patterns of that era so many weapons builders and other industries used their specifications. I have heard the British thread pattern is also called a "Whitworth" thread or something like that.

Yea on the former, not quite on the latter,
