14nm is supposed to refer to the gate length (which may be larger than the node name).

The gate pitch of Intel's 14nm CPU process node is more like 70nm. [1]

I think the last process where process name = gate length was 90nm. Ever since the naming scheme was more a historic artefact than anything else.
