The Fibonacci Sequence, the Golden Ratio, fractals...these are the basis of how the Universe creates patterns. It would be far more surprising if the galaxy layout was wildly different from everything else. From the smallest in the quantum world, to the largest structures we can detect, it's all the same math that governs it. It's not really "mysterious", it's "just" math. It seems mysterious to us, and supernatural, but it's not. Even Einstein had problems accepting quantum mechanics and the uncertainty principal; he was still fighting against it the day he passed away. Yet we humans have proven "quantum teleportation" (which is a really bad name) over vast distances, recently all the way from ground to orbit.
