Outside of the relatively simple measure of the Trade Codes that control the presence of lesser nobles, some worlds rise to prominence through location, old family influence, or some other intangible factor. Industrial worlds are often the linchpins that hold it all together. These worlds are important enough to attract special attention, and the Imperium gives them Dukes to make sure that proper attention is given. Most Dukes are given authority over not just one world, but an area the size or significance of an entire subsector.
