CMYK and RGB are actually completely and totally not interchangable. That's why they're Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black, which are the types of ink going into it and are subtractative, meaning as you add them they will darken, as opposed to Red, Blue, and Green, which are the lights your monitor emits and are additive, meaning they lighten as you add them.
