Something like that, yes. I think it should only even kick in when the range is significant in the first place (50+ yards?) and there's probably some clever math to do along the lines of Doug's conversion of Minute of Angle to GURPS Acc.

A miss by 10 will land 50 yards away, dealing 1/150 of the explosive damage, and fragment damage on a roll of 7-.

This only even matters if the explosion does 25d [10d] or more.
