With the CDI on its back on the bench, left to right:
1.brown & brown/white (Coil - and ground), 2. purple/black (tach), 3. black (green wire coax shield in heat shrink)

Bottom row Left to right:
1. White to coil +, 2. Red (power from white T connector), 3. Green (green wire coax core)

so the bottom row on the 6 pin is the same as the demo.

Only difference is the BROWN & BROWN/WHITE is ground. In my demo it is clipped to the case lug. For the 6 pin you would connect ground at the upper left connector.
maybe this is more clear from and Early S Man post:

Here is the pinout looking into the connector with the mounting flange sitting on the hand or table ...

. 31/1 ... TD ... 31d

. A . . . . 15 . . . 7

==============

31/1 -- Power ground
31d -- Signal ground [green coax shield] for trigger signal

15 -- +14 Volt power lead

7 -- Trigger signal from distributor magnetic pickup coil

TD -- Tachometer Drive signal

A -- +460 Volt pulse output to coil
