I doubt that. MAD-DFW, possibly (though really only in winter), but not DFW-MAD.

BCN is a little further than MAD, and the JFK schedule has a little extra padding for taxiing. If you look at the last few days on FlightAware, wheels-up to wheels-down times were ~6.5h on JFK-BCN and ~8.5h on DFW-MAD, so in reality closer to a 2 hour difference.
