2 Things.
1: Basicly everything Sauron told the Numenoreans were lies, with one sole purpose - making the Numenoreans go to war with with the Valar. Which Sauron knew well would be their doom. He never intented the Numenoreans to be his followers or slaves, he simply wanted to get rid of them. Further more Sauron probably wouldn't even know that Melkor/Morgoth was thrust into the Void - for all he knew he might as well be in Mandos on a life time sentense (which sucks when you're immortal).

2: Tolkien changed his view on the Dagor Dagorath theory in his later years - and realised that there would probably never be a new contest between Morgoth and the Valar. But that evil would after the fall of Sauron take a new and different shape.

Cheers T
