Not sure what you mean with Linux-moment exactly, but Blender is sitting rather in a niche need compared to Linux which sit just above the hardware. So in that sense, Blender can’t have a Linux moment: it won’t be deployed in most servers, it won’t be embedded in a mission to Mars…

At a certain point in time Linux became the best platform available to base wide variety of projects on, so the industry followed and made it a de facto standard. It seems, at least superficially, that Blender has all the capabilities needed for wide industry adoption, but it doesn't seem to happen. Obviously talking about industries related to video production, gamedev etc.

I guess 'Linux moment' as in 'first they ignore you, then they laugh at you...'. Both Linux and Blender have been going through those stages.
