For additional documentation about how to upgrade installed 2014 SP3 components with a SQL Server 2014 servicing update, see Install SQL Server 2014 Servicing Updates. The reason is that the installation file is (despite the name) not just the Management Studio, but actually the Sql Server express plus the management tools, so it is possible you might have installed the sql server and not the management tools.
