London city probably started like many other settlements on rivers as a crossing, because a crossing acts as a bottleneck you get lots of people in a small place which is ideal for trade so stalls and retail would build up in the area, people who manned these would need somewhere to live and so housing would be built bringing in more people. The people who lived there would start needing other services attracting yet more people to fill these roles and the settlement would get larger and larger.
London is so large because it would have been the last crossing point on the River Thames and therefore got the highest traffic when a crossing was built there as it would have been the shortest route for many people.
