Yes, the M means metric. A M6 bolt is a 6mm diameter bolt with a typical 1.00 mm thread pitch.

The washer is a 6.4mm inside diameter.

Familiar with Metric sizing, it's the other notations in Red Books?

Examples;

B 6.4
A 5.3

The four longs bolts are for your brake cooling scoops and the two stainless bolts are for the cover under the steering rack. (Going off memory from taking everything under my 993 apart numerous times over the years).
