I will try to comment. Charles Russell was a little bit more open minded than Rutherford and those after him. In the beginning at least, he did not feel that you had to be in line with his thoughts to have bible truth. And many of the early bible students were open to fellowship with people from other churches. Some still do this today. So it does not surprise me that he believed that true bible study started way prior to 1914 or 1874 or whatever year the WT of today says it did.
But, how exactly he came to this date of 1585 - I don't know. I am assuming he got it from the same place as all his other dates - his own imagination!. Lilly
