When doing that stock 5th gear into 6th position stack I usually like to go a tick or two higher than that on both 4th and 5th gears. Something like a 1.063 or 1.040 5th and a 1.250 or 1.286 in 4th. The issue is that unless the car has got a peakier cam or a fair bit more horsepower than stock, trying to keep accelerating at 130mph on the 5-6 shift it's just a bit more responsive if you are entering 6th with less than 1000rpms drop.
