Punjabis had significant representation in British Indian army, so after partition Pakistan inherited army which was already Punjab dominated (and Pashtun were second largest group)- Even in Indian army Sikh Punjabis' ratio was too high as compare to their population and even today their share in Indian army is higher as compare to their share in Indian population.
Just Punjab's dominance in Army is not actual factor which caused dominance of Punjab in Pakistan, you have to look other aspects
Pakistan didn't inherited democratic systems unlike India. And we failed to establish it in early years as literacy rate was very low on top of that Southern Punjab & Sindh was/is in clutches of feudalism, Sardars/Head of tribes in Baluchistan, and tribalism in most of NWFP. And our elite was more interested in power than institute building - Our president "Eskandar Mirza" imposed first marshal law by saying that democracy is not suitable for country with low literacy rate. Absence of democratic institute and incompetent & opportunist ruling elite created space which army generals filled. By 1973 when we made proper constitution the Army's influence was already very strong.
In early decades Pakistan's economy was based on Agriculture as we didn't had industrial base. And Punjab had lion share in agriculture output, which gave her leverage in decision making.
The good thing which happen to Punjab & urban South Punjab (exc. rural south) was that it was not under feudalism/Sardars/Tribalism (thanks to British who distributed lands in smaller portions) - so, with economic prosperity Punjabis started focusing on education and started opting govt. jobs, other professions and industries.
So - imho, yes Punjabies dominated Pakistan for decades, but saying that just because of Army it dominated is gross injustice as common Punjabi had earn his/her prosperity by working hard.
