I am not sure that is true. Here is 60 years of PhD undergrad school data, one would have to adjust for school size to really compare.

Baccalaureate origins of doctoral recipients

Here's a little data for you: 61 years of it, to be precise. The National Science Foundation publishes its data on US doctoral recipients ...

You can cut by type of school as well, which you will find is where the LACs shine (refine based on Carnegie rollup baccalaureate school only)…although as discussed above, you have to make sure any LAC has enough higher level math classes for you.

You can also cut this data by major, for example, in the past 60 years among baccalureate only/LACs, Harvey Mudd, Reed, and Oberlin have produced the most math/stats PhDs, while MIT, Harvard, and UCB have produced the most math/stats PhDs from the set of doctoral carnegie classification.
