I use them because, for me, it allows me to have more options for 
instantaneous movement.  Not only do I have up four compass directions, but 
I have keys that turn my player right angles or 45 degree angles, jump, fire 
the hook, drop a detonator, etc. all in a very logical arrangement that 
bears some resemblance to the cursor movement system used in some 
screenreaders.  It also frees up the rest of the keys for other stuff.

An example of how to bind then would look something like
bind KP_2 +forward
bind KP_8 +back
bind KP_4 +left
bind KP_6 +right
