The idea behind Year Zero is that all culture and traditions within a society must be completely destroyed or discarded and a new revolutionary culture must replace it, starting from scratch. All history of a nation or people before Year Zero is deemed largely irrelevant, as it will ideally be purged and replaced from the ground up.
It is the basic concept of Marxism. You can't be a Marxist while not believing in "[replacing all institutions with one grand institution of communism]". And that means all institutions.
But the other thought I've been dabbling with before this year zero mention stuff is a plot to prep against nuclear war by the elites and then to intentionally trigger it or at least play fast and loose extorting the world until nuclear war is inevitable and using that extortion to store up means for the nuclear prep. They may plan to let the current world die.
Marxism co-opted the truth. It is how things operate, but they wanted it on their terms i.e. no complete destruction at all.... they would be left immune hiding behind their doctrine. Just like the roman empire leaving paganism behind and adopting Christianity....Rome remained.

communism is not Marxism. Marxism is Marxism, named for a guy name Marx. Communism is named for community. In other words...us.

Nuclear weapons are vastly over-rated. I'd be more worried about organ harvesting
