Sort of, but not really.

It could be faster than classical computers at a specific task, yes.

But it's not just churning through the same steps a classical computer would, faster than a classical computer would. It's something entirely different, which is why the biggest benefit is likely going to be the simulation of systems we can't currently simulate.

So it's not like a really fast CPU, the way a car is a faster vehicle than a horse. It's more like a petting zoo versus a conservation zoo. Some of the same things are present in both, but they really have almost entirely different purposes.
