This is due to OS X code-signing that arrived with Tor Browser 6.0. See:
https://blog.torproject.org/blog/tor-browser-60-released third section.

We are working on providing instructions on how to remove the
code-signature in order to get the same SHA256 sum as the pre-signed
bundle. See: https://bugs.torproject.org/18925 for these efforts.
