This is probably a "handedness" thing
my hypothesis is as follows
people that are right handed will probably hold their phone in their right hand, meaning rotating counter clockwise so its in the middle
the opposite would likely be true for left handed people, holding it in their left hand and rotating it clockwise to have it be in the middle
hmmm
ivn't a clue what else it could be then
I did some googling and it appears thats the default way things are landscape in the programming of the machine, such that if an app is to force landscape mode it forces it into "90 degrees counter clockwise" landscape rather than the opposite. Perhaps that influences how people perceive the way its meant to be held?
