Davros wasn't a human. He was a Kaled, the human-like species that the Daleks evolved into. We see the Kaleds running around like ordinary people in Genesis of the Daleks, a series with the Fourth Doctor, the wikipedia entry of which I have conveniently linked below.
The Daleks were what happened to the Kaleds who got stuck outside the dome and irradiated, evolved to their endpoint by Davros' experiments, I think. Ref, also Genesis of the Daleks. /geek
Nonono. Daleks were created by Davros within the dome.
They were irradiated mutations of the original Kaleds though, hence why he named them with an anagram...
So how was Tom wrong?
Forced evolution is still evolution.
I suppose it depends on which story you go by, though. I think the one provided with the first Dalek episode (1st Doctor) was nuclear war.

I'm glad we got so much of The Master - John Sim is a pretty wonderful actor. (some slight spoilers)

Supposedly they are humanoid. I always took that to mean

But they have two hearts. Different evolutionary ladder.

For all we know the daleks have three.

Unless explicitly stated, we assume the simplest explanation - one heart. And human(oid).

I always thought it was more a function of the series' budget restrictions.
