Ah yes, because other than those two tweets Trump has never incited any mayhem before.
Certainly hasn't been shrieking that the election was stolen and that if Democrats control the government it's the end of democracy. Literal apocalyptic rhetoric that millions lap up.
Then of course at the rally yesterday telling people to march on the capitol building where they are currently stealing the election!

I'm not addressing the broader question of Trump's tweets, just the specific one of why Twitter might have chosen to censor those tweets in particular.
