Compleanni is masculine because it derives from the Latin "complere annum" (to complete a year), and when this phrase was contracted into a single noun in Italian, it retained the masculine gender of "annum" (year). The word essentially fossilized the gender of its etymological root rather than following any productive gender rule.
