Totally wrong. `use v6` specified Raku (formerly Perl6) code and initially thought to be used to distinct perl5 code from perl6. For now I consider it mostly as a decoration except for test files where .t extension is shared between languages.
With regard to multiversioning, rakudo currently supports all language releases available so far. So, if one specifies a particular language version like `use v6.c` it means that the code in the file will be compiled using 6.c. It will be done by the same compiler and it has nothing to do with 'multiple versions installed'.
