Can I upgrade Splunk from 5.0.5 to 6.0.1 without upgrading to 6.0.0 first?

I am upgrading my Splunk environment from 5.0.5 to 6.0.X. 6.0.1 was just released today. Can I upgrade directly to 6.0.1 or do I need to upgrade to 6.0.0 first and then from 6.0.0 to 6.0.1?

Though it does not explicitly state this in the releae notes, yes, you can go directly to 6.0.1 without stopping at 6.0 first I'm told by Splunk.

That is correct, the upgrade path directly to 6.0.1 was tested and is a supported upgrade.
