Why not rethinkdb or couchdb then ? Mongo is not the only Javascript friendly document oriented database.

Mongo isn't even "Javascript-friendly". It just accepts JSON for queries, that's all. JSON is approximately as related to Javascript as Javascript is related to Java.

Its shell accepts JavaScript commands IIRC. Not sure if that's enough to call it JS Friendly though.

It might, but you're not going to be using that shell in an actual application, so that would hardly make a difference. The querying is all JSON.
