They are a little bit different, either in implementation and usage.

--urls shows the urls for everything that is needed to download for a
specific transaction. For example, if when removing a package it imposes
the downgrading or upgrading of others, --urls would show those
packages.

OTOH, --dump shows only the packages that are *directly* related to the
requested transaction. So, if a removal will force a downgrade, --dump
would show the removed packages only, ignoring
upgrading/removing/instaling packages on the transaction.
