Google should lower scores with pure keywords in them. especially the ones with hyphens. more than one hyphen should be lethal to ranking.
Since the average Google user knows zilch about SEO, most probably hold a different opinion. Hyphenated domain names and file names tend to be more descriptive about what they'll find on the page after they click through.

I use hyphenated filenames extensively for this very reason, not for any SEO benefits (which I think are more imagined than real anyway based on personal experience).
