Delete that centermark you already have.
Start the Centered Pattern centermark tool.
Click the central hole and then each one of the holes in a pattern (pick the first hole in the pattern a second time as you close the circle.  Right mouse button create.

 

You now have a "bolt circle" centerline to dimension to.

As I recall some way or another there is also a method of doing the bolt circle without a central hole (or cylindrical feature), but you have one - so not a problem.

 

Post back if you can't figure it out.
