It's not JUST cheese - pairing wine with food is a highly coveted art. For example, have you ever heard that you should drink red wine with beef, and white with chicken? It's not just cause the colors match - having the right wine paired with the meal will highten the taste sensations of BOTH the wine and food. Cheese just happens to be a type of flavor that makes the flavor of a wine go HUZZAH in your mouth! How did it start? How did peanut butter and jelly start? Milk and cookies? Turkey and cranberry sauce? Same as everything else that tastes good - people way way way back in the day just realized it tasted delicious together so they kept on doing it.
