jolub: badgers is correct here. You shouldbe applying the rule of 4 here. That is with two cards to come you multiple the number of outs you have * 4, which gives you ~32% of catching on of your outs by showdown. However, as a disclaimer, you should only be using the rule of 4 when facing an allin on the flop, because that means you are guarenteed to see both the turn and river card for the price you are being offered. However, that isn't the case if villain bets and still has money behind. In which case you apply the rule of 2.
Also your method of determining the odds is flawed. On the flop there are 47 unknown cards in the deck. 8 of them help you. You don't just put that as 47:8 or 6:1. Instead you must subtract the cards that help from the cards left. So you get 39:8 or ~4.9:1. That is your odds of hitting with one card to come. This is the approximately the equivalent of using the rule of 2.
