Pops usually is used to indicate that it isn't just chamber music, but a variety, including more popular music of the day.
OP: According to when I took Orchestra, a Philharmonic Orchestra is smaller in numbers than a Symphony Orchestra. (Makes sense since Symponies are written in more parts per instrument.) So it has all the same instruments, but not as many on each instrument.
