Fritz5.32's performance is 2677+141=2818
Judit polgar's performance is 2000-141=1859
Judit polgar did 2.5 out of 8 against an unrated player(we assume its rating is
2000) and this is the reason that
her performance is 2000-141 when Fritz did 5.5 out of 8 against 2677 player.

There is nothing wrong in the numbers except the assumption that fritz5.32's
rating is 2000.
