It makes sense Necrons would want to get into the webway, actually; The Third edition codex mentions that the Webway allowed the Old Ones' fleet to run rings around the Necron's ships. So perhaps the Necrons used to use the old inertia-less drive, but during the War in Heaven, using Dolmen gates proved so superior that the inertia-less drive was obsolete, and the Necrons didn't count on not the webway deteriorating during their long sleep, and keeping an obsolete form of travel on their ships strikes me as at odds with the ruthless efficiency the Necrons would have practiced at that time.
