I think you're giving him too much credit. He's definitely one of the primary reasons why the style has broken through the mainstream but groups like Monster Magnet and Fu Manchu had been fuzzing out for years while he was still learning to play Polka tunes on his first guitar.
Really though, as far as godfathers, founders, and prime forces behind stoner rock go it's freaking Black Sabbath and Hawkwind
