The 2000 is for Fritz5 and not for polgar.

Polgar's rating is not important when we compute polgar's performance.
The only important thing is that polgar lost to unrated player 5.5:2.5

Everyone who lose against stupid 2000 player 5.5:2.5 has performance
2000-141=1859

everything is right except the assumption that Fritz has 2000
