If it is possible for 2700 GM's(lower rated than kasparov) only to get the same
result then it supports the theory that DJ is a super-GM.

If you think about 2500-2600 players then one that can get 50% is not enough
to say that DJ is not a super GM and you need to see if all can get average of
50% in order to say that Junior is somewhere between strong IM and Decent GM.
