I've visited most of the big cities in Europe and I've seen much fewer Muslims in Amsterdam than in London, Paris and other cities.
If by Muslim you mean of Arab descent, true, there aren't as many in the Netherlands - most of their Muslim residents come from Indonesia.
And as to why, most rich countries tend to hate on their large groups of migrants, unfortunately. In the US you see racism against people of Mexican origin, in Japan, against Korean and Chinese, and the same goes for European countries with large muslim populations.
