AFAICS this (japanese-test-7.sgf) is simply not a final position. If white plays first at least there's a ko and he will probably capture a lot of black stones. Moreover, I think officially the group would be in seki if the dame are not filled (so then none of the intersections around S6 are territory).
Erik Of course Black's position is hopeless so he might as well have resigned.
