She was created because of the trend set down by Meiko and Kaito. After Kaito's failure they recorded just female vocals for their Voclaoid 2 generation. Luka, Miku and the Kagamines samples were already together by the time V2 started and were released periodically after this.

She also is currently the only one with English and Japanese capablities, something which was needed at the time of her release I think.

Yes, I know there are a lack of males, but the girls tend to sell better even now. Example; both Rin andLen are sold together, Rin has far more songs then Len though and not just because he is overall harder to use. Producers in Japan prefer Rin's vocal. :-/
