Comparison of Arab and Jewish Nobel Prize Winners

Thanks to an Annonymous reader for sending me this!

Arab/Islamic Nobel Prize Winners From a pool of 1.4 BILLION Muslims which are 20% of the world's population (2 out of every 10 people)

After reviewing this list, can you supply a reason for the large discrepancy between the Arab/Islamic population's contribution to the world body and that of the Jew? There are 165 Jews listed as opposed to 6 from the Arab side.
