It's definitely the black ano!
No jk. It's mostly the alloy. 7075 has over twice the tensile strength of 6005. (Based off of strengths I found here
http://alcobrametals.com/guides/aluminum) I think the cross-section of the thunderhex is also stronger but that probably has a smaller impact than the alloy.
