Jane Street is a `prop shop' in the lingo of the industry.
You are right, OCaml doesn't see too much use outside of Jane Street, Citrix and a few others. I think the academics mostly left it in favour of Haskell. Also the owner of the OCaml project didn't embrace community development early on. It's more like a cathedral than a bazaar. They are signs showing to change, but it's probably already too late for mainstream popularity.
