Justin Briggs has been in this Google test bucket where he is seeing Google mobile search results with very few organic results, mostly two organic listings, sometimes up to five but never more.

This is not surprising because (a) Google is always testing things and (b) I doubt most people scroll past the first few results anyway on mobile.
