It doesn't necessarily mean the same thing. The camel/gate (unfounded) interpretation has been stretched to note that a camel COULD fit through the gate on its knees, therefore it's a metaphor about being on your knees (pray) if you are wealthy and you can go through the gate, i.e., you can be rich if you are pious.

Which... brings us full circle to the Pharisees. The good news is, we can all be Jesus, right now and start finding these people in person and calling them out.
