The available disc space is calculated at these lines in the current
version of livecd-iso-to-disk script,
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=livecd;a=blob;f=tools/livecd-iso-to-disk.sh;h=7df49c2b8383eda8b7e049650765f8f25735621a;hb=HEAD#l980
using the df command.

(The livecd-iso-to-disk-oc name and output indicate that you are using an
older version, but the process is similar.)
Other files on the drive and the specific filesystem formatting type and
configuration will affect the results of df.
