The script that is executed by "service jenkins start" is likely explicitly declaring a java version by its path to the java executable. If you're on a Red Hat derivative, you could look at /etc/sysconfig/jenkins to see if it calls for a specific java version. If you're on a Debian dreivative, you could look at /etc/defaults/jenkins to see if it calls for a specific java version.
