Ah, the difference is because one is softer lead, the other is harder led. 6B I believe is the softest lead, thus it being the darkest lead. Instead of you having to shade in with a 2B pencil like over and over again and press hard and all that stuff, you use the 6B to get the darkest shade. Then I believe the lower the number the lighter and harder the lead is for you. Which you use for lighter shading or lighting. (:
