The CRUSH map makes up the so called "Cluster Map", for which the Ceph Monitors 
maintain a master copy. This is precisely why you have multiple monitors - for 
high availability in case a monitor goes down.

This is all explained quite well in the architecture documentation: 
https://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/architecture/#cluster-map.
