If I were writing a full backstory on how Iblis did this, I would see him as someone who took the form of a living Cylon and gave them the technological breakthrough to develop the centurion robot (perhaps the old Cylon race was in a war where they needed such technology to win, or perhaps even in a civil war with each other and Iblis helped one side), knowing that inevitably the robots would destroy the living Cylons.

Check out the Realm Press story "Dark Genesis" (BSG Tourbook, c. 1999, Realm Press comics). It has the scenario you described fleshed out somewhat nicely.
