The saving throw (if any) against a spell-like ability is 10 + the level of the spell the ability resembles or duplicates + the creature's Charisma modifier.
Looks like it is an error to me. I can't see that you've missed anything.

perhaps icicle blast is a level 2 spell.
Just for reference:
For creatures with spell-like abilities, a designated caster level defines how difficult it is to dispel their spell-like effects and to define any level-dependent variables (such as range and duration) the abilities might have. The creature's caster level never affects which spell-like abilities the creature has; sometimes the given caster level is lower than the level a spellcasting character would need to cast the spell of the same name. If no caster level is specified, the caster level is equal to the creature's Hit Dice. The saving throw (if any) against a spell-like ability is 10 + the level of the spell the ability resembles or duplicates + the creature's Charisma modifier.

I've found its best to post a note where you think something belongs or it can end up in some random, dusty backwaters where no one will ever see it.

It's not that.
"Icicle Blast (as burning hands but deals cold damage)" with no indication that it becomes higher level spell.
the indication would be that the DC is of a lv2 spell.
