'Inductive charging borrows Nikola Tesla's idea of wireless power transmission' - no, it uses Michael Faraday's discovery of electrical induction. Telsa thought his 'wireless power transmission' was something more than simple induction, but it wasn't - his idea was based on a misunderstanding of electromagnetism.
It's interesting, but it's possible that some of the effect is due to the novelty factor - most people with an 6 plus and an iPad will have had the iPad significantly longer. I also suspect it depends how they use the iPad - I use mine mostly for text-based activities - I can touch type on an iPad keyboard, but I couldn't on an iPhone 6/6 plus, so wouldn't see much of a change.
