It means Ponyboy likes his world of heros and sunsets, but it's like living in a dream. Dally is similar to the world, cold and hard, because the world isn't a happy place for the greasers. The reality is that there is no sunsets or happiness, there's just problems and poverty, and that's why Dally scares Ponyboy.

Dally is not so much a hero as he is a figure of idolization. Johnny sort of looked up to him as a hero, maybe because he was so tough (and tuff) or maybe because, as Ponyboy said, he's real. So real it scares him.
