They are. Kind of. You are just underestimating the scale of Java.
There are millions of Java devs. If 1% of them move to a better JVM language that's 10,000+ programmers who have moved. That is a lot of developers jumping ship.
In addition, by jumping ship they really mean starting new development in another language... They aren't rewriting their millions of lines of Java code. So they still maintain this code and as such would still be flagged as Java programmers.
