Sauron would have gotten a "kick" out of corrupting the same race of Men that had previously been some of his worst enemies. Poetic justice, he'd like to call it. Both Morgoth and Sauron enjoyed corrupting the fairest things and people into their service, so it makes sense why Sauron would corrupt the Black Numenoreans.
