125.6 posts on the Dunnunda forum and 125.6 is a Brisbane App frequency so I presumed Australian standards.
Section 533 for equally geeky...
Yes, MANOPS 533.2 Diagram 1 shows 6 miles Tail to Tail

Here is a pearler from Australia's MATS I bet you wish you had:
4.7.2.5 Wake turbulence separation is not required:

a. when a LIGHT aircraft will cross the track or follow the track of a
MEDIUM fixed-wing aircraft of less than 25,000 KG maximum
certificated take-off mass (includes B190, E120, SH36, SF34 and
A748);


With so many different global wake turbulence stnadards one wonders what ICAOs role is.

Happy New Year
