I think the reason the Fleet moves on is simply because Adama knows that some on the Council will agitate to stop and settle there. "Our technology can help you. The Cylons are gone. We're safe now. Blah, blah, blah." Adama isn't dumb enough to think the danger is past, and hanging around Terran space too long could bring the Cylons there as surely as sending a signal to Imperious Leader.
