First, it is worth noting that water jet velocity = (Q/A) = sqrt(2 * g * d). As such, it is not dependent on the opening size of the wardrobe. The figures given appear to assume the wardrobe is 2 square meters, which is probably fairly large.
Second, there is also the matter of momentum. The water mass is ~400,000 kg/sec, at ~200 m/sec, for a net of 80,000,000 kg meter/sec. If the receiving portal is subject to conservation momentum and is another wardrobe, it will be traveling at over 99% of the water jet speed. (The reduction would actually be less than the adjustment for the correct gravitational force.) So part of what the white queen would have to worry about is this wardrobe darting all over the place at ~700 km/hour or ~440 miles/hour. Of course, the sending wardrobe will be zipping around the ocean as well, which might make "Glass Half Empty" relevant.
