I was taking into account the 32-way SIMD instructions that Intel is heading towards with their many-core processors. Current Knights Corner has 6 teraflops with around 50 active cores and so going up by a factor of 4x cores and 2x as wide SIMD and you get 48 teraflops. I was being conservative in my estimate.
