Yeah you're right another 4 comming up would have split the pot. the 2% does not come from the High card then winning the hand as the pot would be split. The 2% is derived from the fact that a 4 comming on the river would split the pot between the KQ and the pocket 4's, not win it for the KQ. Their is no real way to show this on a graph like the one that they use on TV so what they do is take the percentage of a 4 comming on the river and split it between the two people in the pot. so while the KQ has no chance of winning the pot he has about a 4% chance of splitting the pot and this is represented in the box by a 2% chance of winning. Hope this is clear
