From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I forgot how version numbers work for a second, and that 6.1 is not 6.10.
You're not alone in that. I remember when Blender 2.80 was about to release and it was a big milestone and everybody online was hyping about "Blender 2.8". I think even Blender themselves went with the flow and changed the marketing.
I'm going to up vote and ruin this, but document for posterity.
I find myself guilty of this mistake as well. Honestly I think anything higher than x.9 should be avoided due to confusion x)
