No, I just felt that the file name is unexpected.

Here are file names since 6.1 (I don't remember about 6.0):

ppostgresql-v6.1.tar.gz
postgresql-v6.1.1.tar.gz
postgresql-6.2.tar.gz
postgresql-6.2.1.tar.gz
postgresql-6.3.tar.gz
postgresql-6.3.1.tar.gz
postgresql-6.3.2.tar.gz

So seems that "postgresql-v6*" had been used only for 6.1 series.
