Wrong.  Ultra-III and later cpus schedule the delay loop differently
than earlier cpus do, so the number is going to be lower but this is
not because his cpu is slower than the other ones nor does it mean
that something is wrong with his machine or with the kernel.

His bogomips numbers are perfectly fine for a 600MHZ ultra-III.
