I believe that the State Lake in Chicago also actually ran Cinemascope 55.

That contradicts Marty Hart's assertion:

Ultimately neither Carousel nor The King and I were ever shown in 55mm, and no record of a 55mm print exists.

(Those being the only two features shot in the process.)

Then why are there 35/55mm projectors in existence?

Are the 55mm sprockets for 6 perf or 8 perf (not that I know for certain whether there would have ever been contact workprints)?
