Node v6.6.0
The last time I checked node it was 0.12.* . How did it become 6.* in a couple years time?

A bunch of folks unhappy with Joyent's progress on node forked it into io.js, they had an aggressive release schedule, and then when the 2 project reunited, they chose to use io.js's versioning. (io was at 3.3; the new unified release was 4.0)
