Seaside Rescue

I've been watching the TV series Seaside Rescue - more for the flying than any other reason.

Firstly, I'd like to say that the guys who fly SAR helos do a fantastic job.

Can someone answer a question for me though? When the winchman is hanging out of the door calling 'forward one', 'left two' etc, is he meaning 'go left two (units)' or is it some sort of countdown, i.e '6 go right, 5 go straight, 4 go left etc etc' ??
