I am assuming the library you are using has options to set the format of the input. I do not believe this is a salesforce question since you are using an imputtext with a JS library– EricOct 23, 2016 at 18:42

@Eric DatePicker is the out of the box SF library. It's definitely in scope here.– sfdcfoxOct 23, 2016 at 20:59

The format will be based on your locale settings. This is located under Setup > Manage Users > Users, and find the Locale drop down. The specific locale selected will determine which format will be used by DatePicker. Simply switching the way it displays on the screen would cause underlying behavioral problems with the database, which always parses dates according to your locale settings.
