Well, curiously I did get the same BogoMips (20.21), both in Firefox 4 and Chromium, on a virtual machine and on the host OS, which seems weird...

Seems reasonable - if there's no attempt to sync. the emulated RTC to wall time, the bogomips calculation will just give emulated instructions per tick of the emulated clock, which should be independent of the browser or host (and even more useless than normal bogomips as a performance estimator).
