Security features, support, integration with a Docker Data Centre type management console and other complementary tools.

Exactly the same model as Redhat RHEL, who incidentally are the only profitable open source company ever.

There are a bunch of profitable open source companies (SUSE, nginx, Joyent, etc) -- Red Hat just happens to be largest.

Hortonworks was profitable before Cloudera acquisition. Rob Bearden was CEO of Hortonworks before coming to Docker as well.
