Well, it's certainly decreased the significance of commercial and closed-source development tools & support. It's also made the market for programer talent more transparent and meritocratic, thus potentially increasing compensation for talented developers. One would expect this to lead to shifts in the employment from other sectors into programming.
Doesn't that count as disruptive? Sure he didn't make a bundle in the process, but he did make the world a better place.
