The scare quotes indicate that 'stoned to death' implies the biblical sense of stoning and even if an atheist used that biblical reason the whole point is it's not meant to be taken that literally and that even if there are exceptions where atheists did 'stone someone to death' under biblical reasons that's just another example of religion doing harm as religion couldn't be used for an excuse if religion didn't exist.
No one was ever 'stoned to death' by an atheist means "atheism never causes biblically based stoning but the bible certainly can cause it."
