My question about the exception note is that it refers to "the service disconnecting means supplying more than one occupancy". I interpreted this to mean the MAIN service disconnect ahead of all the individual apartment meters/breakers.

Since there are about 30 or so tenant meters/panels in this room, the "6 or less" provision means that these breakers cannot be considered true "service disconnects" for the building. The main disconnect switch feeding the meter bank is in a separate area that has been locked for many years.
