WBH Belt Bulk Calculation

I'm quite confused about the calculation for Belt Bulk on p. 73. The formula clearly says to roll 2D2 + DMs. So far so good. But if I look into the examples on pages 74 and 75 it appears that a formula is used that goes like this: 2D6 +2 + DMs.

In the first example it says: 4+2-6.3/2+2/10. Where is the +2 coming from? It is not in the formula on p. 73.

And in the second example it says: 5+2-6.3/2+20/10. Again we have a +2 DM, and on top of that, a 5 is rolled. That wouldn't be possible with 2D2. So I believe that either the examples are wrong, or worse, the formula printed on p. 73 is wrong.
 
I suspect the "4+2" from the first example is 1D6 + 1D6, and the D6 digits haven't been converted into D2 numerals. I cannot see how those numbers could have been from an unmentioned DM.
So, while the Belt Bulk formula provided is 2D2 - System Age DM + Composition DM, the actual formula used in the examples probably was D6 + D6 - System Age DM + Composition DM. That must be wrong, by definition. But I see no other way of interpreting the example numbers.
