I disagree.
Any value between 6 and 11 can be correct.  Which one is preferable depends
on the stickiness of the `invisible' text-property.  In your case the
property is rear-sticky, so in order for insertion of a char at point to
insert a visible char, point has to be 6, which is why Emacs chose to use
6 in your example.
