There's some really bad math here. Also, Jonin were heavily nerfed in Part 2. I don't think we should look too much into that instance as plot no jutsu took over. Tobirama named Hiruzen as his successor and prepared himself to die. He was planning to sacrifice himself, so I don't count that instance as a loss for Tobirama or a feat for the Kinkaku force. More of completing an objective.

P.S. Plot no jutsu did in fact take over, since Tobirama should have been able to FTG everyone out of that situation to a safer location.
