Why not Chief in command or Commander of chiefs or similar?
The sentence basically means Commander in biggest or Commander in most important. It’s a strange structure.
why is "commander in chief" structured like that?

Chief Commander sounds so much better, although it also brings to mind the image of a stoner superhero: Keef Commander

This would make an excellent recurring story on American dad wherein Jeff is secretly a Superman à la quailman from Doug.
