Nipple sizes

I want to know what the dimensions on nipple sizes refer to, specifically the 6mm-.75. I assume the 6mm is the diameter of the threaded portion, but what is the .75?

It's the thread pitch. Just like a 6 - 32 screw. Six is the size and the 32 are the threads per inch.

Thanks. That's what I suspected, so it's .75 threads per millimeter?

Yup, that is correct.
If you need a metric set of taps for chasing one or more of these, you'll find a serviceable set for chasing them for about $13 at Harbor Freight. I recently bought a set to fix a 6x.75 (Pietta) tapped hole for this very purpose.
