you have a small problem, 2 transcontinental SFO-JFK-SFO. the good thing about lax-sxm is that sxm is not listed as a transcont destination. (the bad thing being sxm-lax is not singkle thr' flgiht #)
so now your luck depends on the mood fo the CX agent

Why not fly DFW-LGB-EWR/JFK-SFO-DFW, that is only one transcon? There are two flights a day LGB-EWR. You might even be able to swing DFW-LAX/LGB if LAX and LGB are co-terminals (I don't know if they are).
DFW-LAX-SXM-SJU-JFK-DFW = 7,986 but since you only get 1.25 points per long segment to the caribbean, not so good.
This is what you proposed:
DFW-SFO-JFK-SFO-DFW = 8,100 but against the rules, how about
:
DFW-LGB-EWR/JFK-SFO-DFW = 7,714
DFW-BOS-SNA-LGA/JFK-SFO-DFW = 10,652
DFW-BOS-SNA-BOS-SFO-DFW = 10,914
