I know that always looking for the most recent/hyped technology is not a good thing and there is a lot of legacy code out there, but I also know that a lot of people started using Kotlin after Google announced official Android support, so if a language rating fails to capture this, then it's not a good ranking in my opinion.

Yeah, that's the point. If Kotlin remains popular, it might make the top ten in 10-15 years.
Swift made it to the top 10 instantly, there are more Android devices than iPhones so you might expect it next year or in 2020.
