Could anyone help me to understand the following image... (posted on Guru3d review for 3800x)

The reason why I am confused is that I found information that suggested 7zip can only use up to 8 threads when decompressing*. I am guessing that this information is incorrect if the 3900x (12c/24t) can be so far ahead of the 3700x(8c/16t) in these benchmarks? Also quite confused as to how the 3800x ended up below the 3700x haha.

I can't imagine that the 0.2GHZ of single core clock speed is the thing making this possible.

Does anyone know how many threads 7zip can actually use?
