Did you restart the app? Did you update rails in the same bundle that your
app is using?

The rails generator (i.e. the command that creates your rails app in the
first place - "rails myapp" - sets the RAILS_GEM_VERSION variable), updating
rails via gems has no impact on this setting.  You have to change it
yourself.  Or, if you comment it out, your app will follow whatever is the
most recent version installed.

So what version is actually serving my pages?

Whatever you see on the /rails/info/properties page is the definitive
answer.
