I'd like to think Benedict was picked to reach out to the Benedictines, and to honor John Paul the Great as a peacemaker, from what I can gather so far....

I have no doubt that Ratzinger picking the name of Benedict had nothing do with St. Malachy's prophecies

But there will be some that will think otherwise
