Because 7 ate 9? And by that I mean, in comparison to 7, 8 was so bad that they drug 9 out back and shot it in the head.
The reality of it is that there's a ridiculous amount of code out there that checks for 9 in the name to detect if the OS is windows 95 or 98. So, a version 9 would have been a shit show.
Then there is also the whole German nein issue... Pasting "WINDOWS NO!" everywhere isn't going to make the marketing droids happy.
