Tornadoes are smaller compared with other storms because they are generated by processes at the microscale and lower end of the mesoscale of weather events. In other words, storm features less than a mile to just a few miles in size.
Wind speed is largely determined by how much the pressure drops in a given distance. The greater the pressure difference in a give space, the greater the wind speed. Tornadoes produce a significant pressure drop at their centers, comparable to the pressure deficits of hurricanes, but over a much shorter distance.
