Originally the Warhammer world was (and still is despite GW's attempts at distancing the two) part of the same universe in which 40k takes place. So, if the Old Ones created Earth, they also created Mallus, and the reason for the two being so similar could be that they had a blueprint for creating worlds that could bear life. Then perhaps the explosion of Chaos energies warped it into what it is in the setting.
