Where did you get this Scipy? If it's from Scipy, then it is NOT for the system Python, and you probably installed Python 2.6 (as well as 2.7) from Python.org. I don't know of anyone else building a Scipy for the system python, or I wouldn't bother myself.
Same version of Python does not necessarily mean same installation of Python, on OS X. From the Terminal you can find out what Python is found: type python type python2.6 type python2.7 System pythons will be in /usr/bin. python.org python will probably be in /usr/local/bin, or /Library/Frameworks.
