It's not really a GP100, it's a Super Redhawk. I don't know why they decided to call it the "Super GP100".
Some of the likely reasons they might have chosen 9mm for the gun have been discussed.
By the way, the SP101 in 9mm was designed to be a carry gun. This gun was designed to be a competition gun. Comparing the two just because they're both revolvers and both in 9mm probably doesn't make a lot of sense. Sort of like comparing a paring knife and a katana because they're both made of steel and both made to cut things.
