I was looking to know if there was a larger cultural reason like "it was the end theme of an anime" or something like that. I was very surprised to see it was their most played on Spotify by such a large margin.

This won't explain it fully in the way you're seeking, but the play VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE by the late Christopher Durang was a 2013 Tony-winner. That show at one point talks about how music used to be good, and then it ends with Here Comes The Sun.

I don't know a closer example beyond that, and I would predict Here Comes The Sun was already held in similar esteem before this play came out about a decade ago. Still!
