This is because the task manager does not enable the SE_DEBUG_NAME right in it's process (even though it has the right, if you are an admin). This privilege is required in order to kill services. You could, if you wanted to, run task manager from a process that already enabled the SE_DEBUG_NAME privilege, and task manager would simply inherit the privilege and then it would be able to kill services. It's probably a lot easier to just use the kill utility.
