Unhappy Ignition wires logical order? or 5&6 switched?

I just did the spark plugs on my 94 Ford Explorer Sport 4x4 the V6. In the midst of this though the neighbors daughter was distracting me pretty badly. So I am unsure if I have the 5 and 6 plugs in the right order. I think they are backwards since all the left side ones are in perfect order, near to far. On the right side though the middle plug doesn't go to the middle but rather the end, and the last plug to the middle. So I just wanted to double check...since I don't have a manual yet.

Anyone know for sure what the firing order is, is it logical as I suspect nothing should be out of order or position. ie:

1 2 3(top plug left)-A B C(top dist left) (top dist right)D E F-(top plug right)456

Thanks I stopped at the local Autozone and they had the diagram there on their computer. Yeah, the 5 and 6 don't follow order chronological. I had it right the whole time, but just wanted to double check thanks!
