Not that much smaller:

                   Population    Killed
                   (mid-2012)    by Police
  United States    314,102,623     984
  England & Wales   56,567,800       3
  Ratio                     6x    328x
Don't think land area makes sense. However adjusting for crime rates and demographics would make a big difference.
