As far as I know, the priority keyword in neighbor statement means the neighbor
's priority. It is recommended to set on NBMA networks to influence DR election
.

For example if the the router has config like

int s 0
 encapsulation frame-relay ietf
 ip address 172.16.100.1 255.255.255.252
 ip ospf priority 0

router ospf 1
 neighbor 172.16.100.2 priority 100

Then this router does not try to be DR or BDR but consider the neighbor as DR,
this simplifies and determines the DR/BDR selection.
It works this way, I have tried this.

In fact, I don't know if the priority in neighbor statement takes precedence ov
er the priority in hello packets.
