Possibly because that's the default size of a replaced element in CSS? 
And that's because that's how big iframes are by default in browsers,

These are CSS pixels, so they're a measurement of angle of arc; they 
don't necessarily quite match device pixels.  For example, at 200dpi a 
single CSS pixel will be 4 device pixels (a 2x2 square).
