Take every one of those numbers with a grain of salt. For instance Hiroshima. By total energy released, the burning city after the explosion released more energy than the bomb. My point: the devestation yield of a nuclear weapon depends far more on where it is detonated than its physical power.
And remember the physics of spheres. Twice the energy in a 3d explosion does not mean twice the damage on the 2d ground. They very biggest bombs are not of much military utility. Far more damage can be done via multiple smaller bombs.
