If you're directly copying a single word from A to B without using address registers (=move.w addr.l,addr.l) then yes, it's exactly 2x faster

For completeness's sake, I will note that if you're copying from A to B and a whole bunch of data needs to be copied or you're copying using address registers, then the 68000 version can be much faster (up to 4x the speed of the 6502 one).
