In no way. They were a dragon type species that were hunted to extinction. The worms live inside the hive and leech off their life force. The first worms were at the center of the hive home world in a different solar system, possibly a different galaxy, and were enormous. The Dreadnought is made from a single segment of one of the God worms that Oryx slew.
According to an analysis by Ghost, the Dreadnaught may pre-date the formation of the Earth, making it at least 4.54 billion years old.[2] Part of the Dreadnaught's construction is made from the corpse of the worm god Akka, whom Oryx had previously slain in order to learn the power to take. Due to an invasion by the Vex, Oryx turned his Ascendant Realm "inside out" by tying it into the structure of the Dreadnaught. In effect, his ascendant realm is located within the Dreadnaught itself, making his ascendant realm more mobile.
