No, there is no similiarty whatsoever between honour killing and the punishment for zina.

Punishments for zina is strictly based on fornication and adultery, and for that you need witnesses, unless I believe you have the zani admit to it on his/her own.

Muslims these days have hardly any knowledge of Islam. They are mostly under the assumption that their regional culture or the practices of their forefathers = Islam. Just because the masses decide to stay ignorant, Islamically uneducated, and stubborn does not mean it is part of Islam, or condoned and encouraged by Islam.

I believe Punishments for fornication (sex before marriage), and adultery (extramarital sex during marriage) are different punishments. According to the Quran, fornication = lashes. A limited number. Adultery, according to Hadith literature, is death. Adultery punishment according to the Quran = still debated whether its just lashes or death.
