You have a mailbox with (at least) MSNs 1:6, where 1,4:6 have \Deleted
set.

MSN 1 (which presumably had \Deleted set earlier) is now expunged and
messages 2:6 become 1:5.

MSN 4 is now 3, and is expunged here. (5:6 -> 4:5 -> 3:4).

MSN 5 became 4 after the first expunge, then 3 after the second, and is
now expunged.

Similarly for MSN 6.

These messages (1,2,3) would have originally had the MSNs 2,3,7.

Of course it is a standard, defined by the section you quoted from RFC
2060.
