While many people do job-hopping because they might get more money etc., others value stability, short commute, a project they like, their colleagues and more money is not as enticing. Even others found a cushy job they don't want to lose - many reasons to stay.
Maybe in the boom times. Now with the market attrition rates are more in line with 6-10 yr stints.
