Help on VCP parameters

Hi,

When I read VCP parameter on spru533d.pdf, I am not clear about the number after Cycles/Symbols. Please see the picture:

I can understand (presumably) 12 Cycles/Symbols for K=7, but I cannot explain the numbers after it: 72/6. Does it mean VCP needs 72 cycles for decoding 6 symbols? Although logically it may be, it still is weird to me for 6 symbols. I propose this question is because I encounter  a similar question on C6000 Viterbi algorithm without clearly definition. Could you shed some light on it?

Thanks,
