You've made sure that not a single hash got cracked during those 10
minutes, correct?

Also, since JtR "incremental" mode's overhead decreases over time,
10 minutes is in fact the reasonable minimum duration of such a
benchmark.

The number for 10 hashes is JtR's reported effective c/s divided by 10,
correct?

...and what are the numbers for Simon's MMX/SSE2-enhanced NTLM support
patch?  I'd expect something like 5000K.
