The Uchiha was wiped out because they were planning a coup. The Uzumaki were wiped out because in a world where Biju are effectively untame-able Nukes, whoever has the fuinjutsu to subdue them is GOD. Considering that Minato's seal design (based on Uzumaki seals) could make anyone effectively a perfect Jinchuriki and fixes all the major problems with Jinchuriki, i'd say the rest of the world was very right to be scared. Other villages had to drag out special sealing pots and powerful Kage to subdue a rampaging beast. All Konoha needed was a tag. Trying to control a biju can cause a rampage, but the Uzumaki's seal could simply be restored by a 3rd party an so contain the beast once more.

The Uzumaki were never feared because of their combat strength (unlike the Uchiha). They were feared (and wiped out) because they were about to wipe out the fragile power balance in the world.
