Six digit, not six segment. Each digit has seven segments.

I've seen this a LOT lately, when did everyone forget what segments were?

If you write code for the f91w you'll quickly realize you can't actually control every segment: https://www.sensorwatch.net/docs/wig/display/#limitations-of.... Some digits have only 4, 5, or 6 controllable segments.

But that's probably not what the author was getting at :)
