Hello, Alexey. NetBSD-6.1 is the source code for the NetBSD 6.1 release; it never changes. NetBSD-release-6 is the source code for the NetBSD 6 stable branch; it changes to reflect the source of the "netbsd-6" stable branch in CVS. See [1] and [2]. As for the 5 tarballs in NetBSD-6.1 vs. 27 in NetBSD-release-6, I don't know why that is.
