I would say that "best of luck" would refer to something more specific, Whereas "All the best" is a generic well-wishing.

So if you knew someone was having a job interview you might say "Best of luck for tomorrow!" but if you said "All the best" it would sound more like you were wishing them well for a long time - so you might say it if you didn't know when (or if) you were going to see them again. It's more an expression that you hope all goes well in their life.
I've also seen "All the best" used as a way of signing off in an email or letter (instead of "Sincerely" or "Best regards"), although it is not overly common. It would be strange to use "best of luck" here.
