Yes -- all runners "ahead of" the runner who is the third out score. So, in your example, R2 and R3 score. R1 doesn't score because he made the third out, and BR doesn't score because he was "behind" the runner who made the thrid out.
I think this was an "unannounced" change about 3 years ago.
It's not a force -- the "passing" has to happen after the passing runner has advanced a base.
