Why didn't do the same with AIX which is actually the IBM's operating system?

Beacause IBM already has a designated AIX market. IBM isn't interessted in using one operating system on every plattform they hav (for some reason). They have z/OS, z/VM, i5/OS, AIX and Linux. Each is strong in their own segment.

They probably would have ported AIX to zseries if Linux had not come into the market. As this guy states, Linux due to its design is easier to port to other platforms. As AIX and Linux are functionaly very similar there was no reason to port AIX to the zseries. Just as they never ported AIX to the xseries (a project that IBM was working on prior to Linux becoming mature)
