If you search for the most powerful tribes in Arabia, banu Khalid will come up, although I don't agree with the "superior" thing in the text and it's wrong. We are all equal.
Banu Khalid claim descent from Khalid Ibn al Walid, some scholars question this tho and suggest they may come from Khalid Ibn al Walids relatives the banu makhsum clan and not from Khalid himself. Khalid Ibn al Walid himself belonged to the banu makhsum clan tho. I don't know if it's suggestions of where banu Khalid came from in the different origins sayings in the text.
The banu makhsum along with banu hashim and banu Umayya were the 3 most powerful and influential clans in Mecca before Islam was sent to the prophet Muhammad saw. These 3 clans all belong to the Quraysh tribe.
A UAE emirate is 61.3% haplogroup T at the moment.
