From what I understand, it has to do with the way that sound shifts occur in a given language over time - the closer to the "center" of the language, the faster it changes. The language of British English speakers therefore evolved much more quickly than the language of English speakers in America over the same period of time, so it can be assumed that many American English dialects are closer to what was spoken in medieval England than many British English dialects. I'm not 100% on this, so anyone please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
