Linux is vulnerable too (but not as vulnerable as windows of course) it’s just not targeted by hackers because it’s market share is so small. That wouldn’t be the case if, say, half of all users ran Linux.

There are far more servers running linux/bsd than there are Windows.
It's market share on servers (a juicy target) is not small at all.
And that sees plenty of attacks too. But here Windows wasn't under attack or a Windows vulnerability exploited, CS just fucked up and companies were stupid enough to put all their trust in CS.
