why there's so many SS fans inside special forces units around the world
That's the first I hear of it o_O Which countries are you talking about (defenitely not Poland)?
These guys begin to look for a historic analogue - a unit which they feel matches
For Polish Special Forces those are AK fighters in general and for JWK AK's "special purpose" battalions and for GROM WWII Cichociemni in particular. So the very people that were fighting against SS.
Polish Special Forces (and Polish soldiers in general) have their own heroes, which are very revered by them. They don't need SS o_O
For some reason - a lot of them begin to gravitate to these Heer and SS units
Sorry, Bobko, but I call bullsh1t on this.
I don't know, maybe you get such impression, because RuSSia and the US are a different pair of animals in terms of numbers of neo-Nazis - in the US Nazi symbols and propagation of Nazism isn't banned, as far as I understand, and in RuSSia it wasn't banned either when I was still discussing with RuSSians.
So, the US has a problem in general with white supremacists who tend to gravitate to neo-Nazism. The fact that they also end up in the military is a by-product of this, imho.

"While neo-Nazis and other extremists are rare in the U.S. armed forces, exactly how rare is not known."
