Did my servicing Ford dealer just damage my Torqshift?

Earlier this week, I took my F350 to the dealer for a transmission flush. Jump ahead to today, I was looking over the service invoice when I read the following:

"Performed full transmission flush.
Installed *01941* :Flush conditioner.
Installed XT 6 DSP :Fluid - transmission.
Performed trans service."

I hope the hell that "XT 6 DSP" is dealer talk for Mercron SP as I was under the impression that the Mercron SP was the only fluid for the Torqshift. Can anyone give me a bit of guidance before I call the dealer tomorrow?

Nice link to an informative chart, Pete!

Looks like that's the number for Mercon SP in a 55 gallon container. They used the correct fluid. Always good to verify that.

Thanks for adding the chart. That is a huge relief as we are planning a 2500 mile trip, leaving in a few days pulling our 8000lb camper.
