> And why is that?

POV-Ray is not used for commercial production purposes (in general). Hence
people who want to enter a career in 3D production are not likely to use it
because it won't get them started (or not for long at least). These folks
need to show their stuff around to get jobs, obtain information about the
industry and see what the competition is : that's what these 3D sites are
all about.
With POV-Ray, most people are hobbyists and this creates a very different
mindset and a very different community. The Poser/Blender/Bryce communities
are closer to this mindset than the MAX/Maya/LW ones, but I'd believe that
POV-Ray is still quite unique in this regard.
