I just tried to search for it as if I didn't know and it was hard. Maybe wikipedia should describe that ^ is common representation among first lines, not in details section. Also macOS (former osx) uses this symbol everywhere: http://www.macinstruct.com/images/command.png

Yes, but it is so annoying and confusing that these symbols are not printed on the actual keyboard. Looking at the keyboard doesn't help much when I try to press a shortcut I just saw in the menu.
