Benzene is, of course, a chemical element that is a major component of petrol. When you ask why a certain word for a certain thing is used in a certain language (or a certain dialect), thee is no definite answer to the why of it. You could as well ask why we Americans call it gasoline, and we could ask why you Brits call it petrol. Those are simply tghe words that people in various countries settled on.
