It doesn't have to, it merely needs to survive. However, there are plenty of ways that a gene might piggyback on the success of things entirely unrelated. Consider a patch of grass and weeds growing in a small right angled box (like a coldframe). Those organisms that get more sunlight (due to shade from the box structure) or moisture (due to overhead cover from the box structure) will have their genetics more widely represented in generations of the future than their unfortunately shaded and sheltered brothers and sisters. Their genetics didn't have to factor in, no advantage had to be possessed or expressed by them. They simply had to survive.
In the case of flagellum and motile ability - specifically, once you can move...you tend to do better than shit that can't - and that's how that adaptation would present itself. Even if all the mutations leading up to it were benign, but ultimately not conferring any specific advantage.
