Those numbers are inaccurate unless you think opponent raises any 2 cards. The percentages of him having PP/Ax/Kx go up as long as you don't think he's raising with 25o and hands like that. You can't just go on the straight starting hand probabilities unless your opponent is completely random. Villain is minraising here, and minraising for a reason. A pocket pair would be one of those reasons, and must be treated as such.

I ditto the reraise to 1200 or something preflop and pushing the flop if you hit. You don't hit or pick up the flush draw, it's time to get out and attack the small stack.
