JXB Runway identification

Was asked an interesting question today. JXB (the new Dubai airport) will have 6 parallel runways and I know the system of 25L, 25C & 25R for 3 runways but how are they going to identify the 6 without any confusion??

They will probably adopt a similar solution as used at LAX where there are 4 parallels. There the 2 to the north of the central terminals are 24 L and 24R, to the south they are 25L and 25R.

In Dubai, they could use 24L, 24C and 24R then 25L, 25C and 25R in your example.

Thanks TopBunk, that's the way I'd figured it but needed a second opinion.
