I seriously doubt it.

The auto has almost exactly the same gear ratios for 4th and 5th as the manual has for 5th and 6th, and it has the same final drive ratio so gearing isn't a factor. So for those numbers to be accurate, the auto would have to be putting 24% less power to the wheels than the manual (ie. not likely).
