Honestly even if you spread it as far as it plausibly can go it still won't be that much. It is very hard to convert to Judaism and they don't really seek out converts if my understanding is correct.
 
and they don't really seek out converts if my understanding is correct.

Now, sure; but they did in Classical times. In fact, the word "proselytize" originally referred to Jews convincing Greeks to embrace Judaism, and when there was a Kingdom of Israel that was moderately conquer-y, they converted a lot of folks.
 
The reluctance to seek converts comes from the draconian penalties imposed by Christian and Muslim rulers on the Jewish communities . If a convert from their religion was found, the entire Jewish community could be wiped out or expelled. Thus they made a virtue out of a necessity and discouraged conversion. Perhaps a timeline in which such a penalty did not exist might have a positive effect on the spread of Judaism. For example Christians disaffected from the Roman catholic church might consider Judaism rather than Lutherism .
