Any chance that you have the largefiles extension enabled in ~/.hgrc,
but Jenkins runs as a different user, and doesn't have the extension
enabled?  The Jenkins plugin for Mercurial doesn't currently have any
special logic to support the largefiles extension (though that seems
like a reasonable feature request to submit to the Jenkins project),
so any config needed to enable it needs to happen at the user or
system level files.
