How does a group of musicians, who may never have played together before, start to play together and make cohesive music? I don’t mean over time, I mean in that first session, good musicians seem to have an intuition of what the others are about to play.

Music theory is very organized. Good musicians who have studied how music is put together know a whole bunch of common chord progressions. Especially with blues/rock. If you are sitting in with some peeps and someone says “blues in E” everyone knows what the musical structure is going to be. With rhythm, it’s similar. If it’s a rock song everyone just gets into a rock groove. Music repeats. Once someone lays out a pattern the others listen and fall in pretty quick.
