I also found out that mainstream support for CentOS 5.6 ended in March ... before 6.0 or 5.7 were released!.
Are you sure about your dates? Centos 5.6 was not even released until April 8, 2011.
Centos-announce/2011-April

The Centos Developers focused on getting 5.6 out, prior to redirecting their efforts for Centos 6.0, based on a perceived need to maintain security updates for the extant 5.5 machines. Scientific Linux focused on 6.0 and the Scientific LInux 5.6 release occurred after the Centos 5.6 release
