Generally, the cover plan of Academy City (to mask Aleister thelema stuff) is the achieval of SYSTEM, and SYSTEM is basically Level 6. Why is Accelerator considered the main plan in all of this? Because he is the best and most ideal candidate to achieving Level 6, he was the ticket to system. Kakine is called his backup, the one who can replace Accelerator if something goes wrong with him. Kakine by proxy of this must be capable of a Level 6 shift in some form. Of course, while Level 6 is not a theoretical level and has been proven to exist via Mikoto's failed shift attempt, it is not useful to Aleister so it is debatable whether Accelerator could remain stable or not, but Aleister does have an idea about it to the point of concluding its usefulness so the whole main plan stuff may not be Aleister lying out his ass.

Kakine has been shown to be able to intellectually compete with Accelerator in a limited to equal form so he will certainly not just spontaneously combust like Mikoto will. Besides that, who else but Kakine could showcase Level 6? Kakine is an Esper with a special title relating to god like Accelerator, and Kakine could certainly desire that power after witnessing Othinus completely and utterly trample him, especially since he laments his own lack of power. Of course, we can tie Kakine's resemblence to Lucifer, as its implied that he fell from grace due to lofty ideals that failed him somehow. However, we should also consider how Kakine closely mirrors the thelemic figure Ra Hoor Khuuit (if Misaka is Nuit and Accelerator is Hadit, then Kakine is most definitely Ra Hoor Khuuit) as he mirrors the duality of Ra Hoor Khuuit (child side being Beetle 05, adult side being the Husk or old Kakine), as well as there being some interesting passages about the slaying of Beetles to invoke his great power and how he fells enemies for a profane, an initiate and an adept. Their aftermath after the beetle slaying tells a lot about how Kakine could end up after killing Beetle, but we're straying from the topic. "When therefore Ra Hoor Khut is rewarded or re-guarded with the Magick Word of the Aeon, he becomes God", since Kakine is his equivalent and Level 6 is the equivalent of becoming a god (though they say SYSTEM can make an Esper's mind comprehend God, only God can comprehend himself so that must mean they attain his power. Kakine's power is of creation, Gods sacred territory. He'd serve as a fitting replacement for him if he attained divinity),

Kakine is the one with the HIGHEST chance of attaining Level 6. Accelerator will not ascend to that level because it contradicts his character development, and the others will simply combust.
