The Jovian planets are more gaseous in composition and have stronger gravitational fields than terrestrial planets. This allows them to pull objects to their surface and increase in size.
The larger the planet is the larger its gravitational field will be. Since the jovian planets have larger gravitational fields they are able to control and capture more moons than the smaller terrestrial planets.
