Is ipad 4th generation an ipad 4? My model number is 1458

The HT5452 page that you posted from shows it as being a 4th gen iPad (i.e. the fourth version). That was the model that was released in November 2012, the fifth (and current model) was released in November 2013)

iPad models and specs : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_iOS_devices#iPad

There is officially no "iPad 4" nor "4th generation of iPad 2". Apple's official model designations are as follows:

iPad (aka "iPad 1" but not officially called that by Apple)

iPad 2

iPad 3rd generation

iPad 4th generation

iPad Air

This doesn't include the iPad minis.

It is a fourth gen iPad, which some people call an iPad 4 i.e. it's the fourth version of an iPad

There isn't an 'iPad 2 4th generaton', there is only one iPad 2

iPad : released April 2010

iPad 2 : March 2011

iPad 3 : March 2012

iPad 4 : November 2012

iPad 5 : November 2013

To avoid any potential confusion, those are not the official Apple designations that KP posted, though those designations are ones often used by users. Not by Apple, though, which uses the designations I gave above.

Regards.
