<So how is 128KB more cache supposed to help so much?>

For Sharky Extreme and other gamers, apparently not that much according to the article. But Coppermine is supposed to be used not only for games like Quake 3, but also for high-end applications where a larger L2 cache really does make a difference.

Of course, there is also Coppermine-128, apparently the 0.18 micron version of Celeron w/ SSE.
