Most bikes come with a frame lock for short stops, and they are usually paired with a chain lock for more security.
I would imagine the bikes that are not secured to a rack in the picture are locked twice. Personally I don’t trust that at the station (too risky) and I always lock it to a rack with my chain lock
There is a bit of a running joke in my city that if your bike got stolen you can buy one for five euros at the station. Just approach the guy with the bolt cutters.
No, bike theft is a thing also in the Netherlands

You can sometimes find your bike in a nearby market for a fee. By a fee I mean they stole it and they are selling it back to you.

Wait. You mean all those bikes outside of the station weren’t grab-and-go?! Hope the guy found his bike after I was done using it!
