Stored fields are now compressed in 4.1. There's other efficiencies too in 4.0 that will also result in smaller indexes, but the compressed stored fields is the most significant.
The compressed stored fields explains your smaller index. As to why you get different results, are you doing the default relevancy ranking, or are you sorting by one of your fields? If you are doing the default relevancy ranking, you may be getting different results because of scoring bugs that have been fixed since 3.6.1. Try sorting your results by a field - add "&sort=fieldname asc" or "&sort=fieldname desc" to the URL and see if the results are what you expect.
If you are already sorting, that's another situation. If you search for all documents on both indexes, is the numFound value about where it should be?
