Centos (and Fedora and RHEL) use udev to manage device nodes in /dev.
Don't use MAKEDEV; instead, take a look at the files in /etc/udev.d.
But before you do *that*, just try loading the 'sg' module, and you'll
probably find that you now have the necessary /dev/sg* device nodes
without any further intervention on your part.
It doesn't make sense to create the devices with MAKEDEV if the
appropriate kernel module isn't loaded.
