OS Update VMSA-2016-0016 and Inconsistent Patch Names

We are still on vR Ops 6.2.0a and the VMSA-2016-0016 advisory states to use the patch available from https://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=21476....  The text of that KB states that the patch should be named

vRealize_Operations_Manager-VA-OS-PATCH-6.2.0.4596418.4596418.pak

The downloads for our version list the patch as

vRealize_Operations_Manager-VA-OS-6.3.0.4596418.pak

Anyone know which is correct?

Thanks!
