Where the heck is the #1 Spark Plug wire supposed to be on the Distributor?

@240260280z:  Can you clarify something for me?   In the picture below (it's also in your September 22, 2012 posting above),  are the numbers running clockwise (1, 5, 2, 4, 3, 6) the cylinder firing order? 

I ask because the Haynes manual shows 2 diagrams that both show the order  as being 1, 5, 3, 6, 2 4. (Haynes pages 73 & 74.).  I'm working on setting up my ignition, so very curious about this!

Thanks!!

I looked on my HD and this is the corrected one.... not sure how the above happened?  Looks like I had a typo in an old version.
