Wikipedia says:
"BogoMips represents a processor's clock frequency as well as the potentially present CPU cache."
So a overclocked RPI should have another "Bogomipsvalue" than the straight one. My RPI running always with 900 MHz says also "2" wich could not thrue.
Wikipedia is not always correct.
Bogomips is present in the kernel for calibrating delay loops. When using a delay loop, that number is proportional to clock frequency.
When using a hardware timer for delays, it is proportional to the hardware timer frequency (which doesn't change with overclock).
Bogomips is not designed for benchmarking processors.
