The first number is the protection level for objects, the second number is the level of protection against water. The 6 means the product has the highest level of dust protection, The 5 means it is able to withstand low-pressure water jets from all directions. To be classed as fully waterproof tit would need to be IP68 and withstand being submerged to a depth of 1.5metres for 30 minutes.
