Well, the sensor in the G2 is identical to the one of the GF-1. I have the GF-1 and GH-2 here.
Even so it is hard to comment on your question. I've used the GH-2 primarily with the 14-140 and this is not the greatest lens ever whereas I've used the GF-1 with some good to great lenses and reached pretty impressive results with it. Anyway, subjectively I'd say that the GH-2 is just slightly better but it is so at a higher resolution.
DxO normalizes the resolution as far as I know. This normalization results in better ratings even if the DR or noise remains technically similar. Basically think of normalization as scaling down to a certain level - e.g 16mp to 12mp.
If you just look at the results without normalization they will look very similar.

While downsizing a higher resolution image to a lower one improves noise performance, DR should be independent of resolution.
To the OP: DXOMARK only analyzes RAW files, not JPEGS.
