There are many interpretations concerning the number 108 and why it's used in Yoga and Vedic culture.  The one which appeals most to me concern vibration and energy.

Ancient vedic sages and mathematicians identified 108 as the number which most resonates with the vibration of the universe.  A mathematical example is this:   the Sun is 108 times the diameter of the Earth, and the distance from Earth to the Sun is 108 times the diameter of the Sun.
 
By chanting a mantra 108 times, we are aligning ourselves with the vibration and energetic pattern of the Universe.
