Interesting... So I am on Arch Linux and that command also outputs the
directory of user installed servicemenus -- ~/.local/share/kio/servicemenus.
Perhaps this is a configuration issue? As per the documentation in
https://develop.kde.org/docs/apps/dolphin/service-menus/, the default paths are 

~/.local/share/kio/servicemenus
/usr/share/kio/servicemenus

So using kservices5 and kservecis6 directories seems to be something that
distros are responsible for.
Maybe you could also try copying things into ~/.local/share/kio/servicemenus to
see if that works?
