Because the wish was for Namek only.

> During the final battle of Gokū and Freeza on Namek, Mr. Popo used the Dragon Balls and wished for the revival of all the people **on Namek** who were killed by Freeza and his men. (Granted)

This means of course anyone who was killed, either directly [or indirectly](https://anime.stackexchange.com/a/14827/1587) by Frieza and his army and were not on Namek was not revived.

Should also note that Shenron's power can't surpass his creator and reviving all of those who have been killed by Frieza universe-wide would no doubt be beyond Kami's (and later Dende's) power since there are probably untold millions killed just from being on a planet Frieza blew up.
