That is probably because the Hurricane has a lot of "empty space" (particularly in the fuselage) where a bullet would simply pencil through without hitting anything of consequence. The Spitfire was a lot more "packed", and the skin was a part of the weight bearing structure, unlike the fabric parts on the Hurricane.
