Instead of global set root statement, define it in each menu entry like
this:
menuentry "LFS6, Linux 3.12.1-lfs-7.2" {
set root=(hd0,7)
linux /boot/lfskernel-3.12.1 root=/dev/sda7 ro
}
menuentry "LFS7, Linux 3.12.5-lfs-7.4" {
set root=(hd0,6)
linux /boot/lfskernel-3.12.5 root=/dev/sda6 ro
}

You're missing set root=(hd0,6) for in the LFS7 menu entry.
