I don't think this is a problem because no object reference to the SynchronizedDescriptiveStatistics instance is published to other objects during construction. The first time an object reference is made available to other objects (and other threads) is after the constructor returns a new object. At which time, the object is fully constructed and all instance variables have been initialized.
