Humans tend to be drawn to the same tones of a certain scale. Regardless of the sound, most music typically uses the same scale. The vocalization of tones from other humans are the most important because it is from them that we gain information. They approached this by comparing the scales to the frequencies in speech. It was then possible to predict which scales were most popular if they were more similar to the frequency of speech in humans.
