Sigma 6

An often mistaken name for Six Sigma, it has two meanings (neither related to process improvement).

  1. Sigma 6 was the original name for the band, Pink Floyd, as they started as a sextet (group of 6 people).
  2. SIGMA 6 is the code name for a group of highly trained covert special mission operatives from the G.I. Joe line of military-themed action figures and toys.
