If the question is, why did the Germans believe that they were the master race?
Because, after the disaster of WWI and the extreme inflation the German people wanted to believe in a positive future. Enter, Hitler....a megalomaniac that helped them believe that he could help lift themselves out of their misery.
One very good way to start this process is to convince people that they are important and to unite them in a common cause is by convincing them that they are unique/superior.
This is not a novel concept and many tribes have names that mean "The People" or "God's Chosen" (irrespective of which god) which is a normal choice to encourage solidarity.
Whether it's tribalism in Africa, Afghanistan, Germany, the USA or any other country in the world, under the right circumstances aberrant behavior can become "normal".
"Whiteness" has very little to do with what happened in Germany...and the Germans didn't choose the primary target of their prejudice based on skin color but based on religion and the persistent idea that a Jewish minority is somehow responsible for the plight of a nation.
Individuals can consolidate into a group because they are repressed (like the Germans after WWI which allowed a monster like Hitler to become their leader), and the condition can persist even though the repression has ended.
Minorities that are/feel repressed can also play the blame game (as a way to maintain solidarity)...thus the idea that only one color of people are guilty of prejudice...even to the point where, all people of one color believe they are superior to other "races" no matter their background or country of origin is completely erroneous.

Was Abraham Lincoln a friend to Africans?
No, he was NOT a friend to African Americans. He felt that whites were superior, and only used the Negro to his advantage during the war. In his own words: "I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of... bringing about in anyway the social and political equality of the white and black races, that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together, there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race. I say upon this occasion I do not perceive that because the white man is to have the superior position the negro should be denied everything." ~ Abraham Lincoln
