You're comparing several generations of PPC processor with a possible range of Pentiums. It's not really an apples to apples comparison.

Performance wise, a 68060 at 50mhz usually lies somewhere between P75 to P90 depending on what it's being asked to do. The PPCs were a big jump in Mhz and a big jump in performance compared to 68k, but the early 603s weren't really that great. The G3 on the other hand was so ahead that Apple took out ads claiming the G3 was twice as fast as a P-II. Not quite true but not far from it. After the G3 things get a little bit messier because things other than raw CPU clock speed become significant performance factors, although there's probably someone who knows more that can offer some insight on the G4/G5 and beyond side.
