I don't really see a problem with adding the Destroyer MAX! stuff to the 616 profile. It's not like Marvel has done anything with Keen Marlow since, usually if they're focusing on one of the Destroyers it's usually Roger Aubrey.

I would highly doubt that they'll do a profile for the Destroyer in any upcoming handbooks to verify if this stuff is part of the mainstream Marvel Universe or not.

From an editorial standpoint I don't really see there being much damage being done if it turns out it's not the 616 Destroyer, all it means is cutting a couple of paragraphs out of one character page and pasting it in a new one.

Also it wouldn't be the first time this has happened when Marvel originally set MAX stuff in the mainstream Marvel U and then changed gears afterwards. If you got some time to track down the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe: Marvel Knights 2004 (or is it 2005? I can't remember) check out the profile on the Punisher, particularly the last few paragraphs. At the time they included stuff that happened in the early run of Gath Ennis' run on Punisher MAX. It wasn't until a few years later that Marvel decided to separate that title from the mainstream Marvel U (Right around the time Civil War was going on and they started publishing Punisher: War Journal Vol 2)

The Destroyer is by no means a popular character like the Punisher where Marvel might want to put distance between the MAX book and something more kid friendly so I can see this stuff happening the 616 universe (much like other Max books in the past like Alias, Cage, Hellstorm, and probably a bunch of others that are escaping my mind presently because I need more coffee this morning)
