Good, but few things to note.
-Dothan isn't Pentium 4, its the 90nm update of the Pentium M. There's no way Core 2 is 2x as fast as Dothan per clock.
-Core i7 965EE "Nehalem" also has a Turbo clock of 3.46GHz. With that out of the way, it'll be at 1.05/1.68, or 10% gain over Conroe. 2700K has 3.9GHz Turbo, not 3.8GHz. 2700K will be at 1.48/1.99, showing 18% gain over Nehalem. Now that makes a lot more sense!
-Haswell, and Skylake are performing lower relatively than they should. Though this isn't your fault.
Their results are just very low in general. 5% over Haswell?

As I was typing "Dothan" I was thinking to myself "I don't remember this as a P4?" Good catch.
That 965 score at 3.2GHz was recorded in the Haswell review written by Anand himself. He noted the frequency at 3.2GHz for that test. The 2700k was actually a 2600k score.
I can't stand behind the P4/Dothan result but except for the 2600k typo the other results are from Anandtech benches so I think these results are accurate. I will do some digging though.
I've done other such IPC comparisons such as this and the generation-to-generation gains are generally smaller than the numbers thrown around by both manufacturers and users. A 10% IPC gain in the post Conroe era is quite an accomplishment. As Anand wrote long ago "all of the low hanging fruit has been picked."
And of course this is just one benchmark we're looking at, single core and frequency isolated so it is really a look at IPC alone.
Skylake to Sunny Cove has the largest IPC increase in the post Conroe era. Quite an accomplishment for Intel. Rocket Lake may be more formidable than I had imagined...
Here is where I got most of the stats:

And here is the 4770k review:

I think Anand may have not included the fact that the 4770k and 3770k turbo up to 3.9 as those scores are what I'm seeing from those parts at 3.9GHz.
