I think it is a mater of quantity, let me explain:
Iced tea, since it is drank in large quantities, usually due to the hot environmental temperature, introduce a greater amount of oxalate than the hot variety (It's impossible to drink 1,5 liter of hot tea in the summer!)
Furthermore, being iced tea a processed food, the crystallized sugar in it contributes to stones formation.
