Like you said, bench and squats are getting heavier and heavier and taking more out of you. Your dips are taking a hit because of bench (plus its an accesory as well) and your pullups are affected because of your energy level dropping.
If you want to gauge your progress on these (dips and pullups) then I would go to the gym on an 'off' day and see how many you can do. I think thats the best way to gauge your performance in those, isolate them. If you can't do as many on the 'off' day then you may have a problem.
Aside from them going down on this day, you've prioritized bench and squats and they're showing improvement and you can't really tell if your dips/pullups are going down overall. On the whole I'd say it's not something to lose sleep over.
