when the dos window closes, there is no sh3.exe icon, only the back-up file of the old patched sh3.exe. 
Where'd it go?

Good question. It should be in the same folder. Use the 'Find File' option for your C: drive (or whatever drive you are using for Silent Hunter 3) to locate it. Make a note of the date and time you created the new SH3.exe, so that you do not get confused between alternative SH3.exe.
Or maybe you have created your temporary folder in an area where you do not have administrator rights, so the patched file cannot be created?

Can I ask what each of the features are? ie, what "smoke on the water" does to the game, etc. etc.

Read either the help file provided with the Options Selector, or in the enclosed file Stiebler3A_patch_Docs.pdf. (I believe that the "Smoke on the Water" mod was created by the rock group "Deep Purple" in the 1970s, though.)
@Tanedin:
If Options Selector v1.6 throws up an error of no switches found, it means that it cannot find a single switch ON (ie value = FF) in the entire SH3.exe switches area. So either you are using an SH3.exe that is not patched at all, or your CTD has overwritten the entire switches area. (Most unlikely.)
I reckon that your difficulties are caused by error of installation of mods in correct order, and/or conflicts between your various menu_1024_768.ini files.
Unfortunately it is difficult to make an accurate diagnosis at long range.
