In this one, the first time through the loop, line 5 takes the value
of $_ which is 1.

Then the second tiime through the loop, you want to print $line (1) if
$_ matches 6 It doesnt, it goes to the next line and $line gets the
value of 2.

Eventually, $_ is 6, a match, so it prints $line whick is 5 from the
previous loop.

here you are simply printing $_ if $_ matches 6

You could just say, print if /6/
